If I've ever seen "lawyering the rules", this is it. The purpose of this rule is so robots weren't designed to use tubes to elevate robots. There really is no sane way to interperet this as the redateam not getting the bonus points. The rule says that if the robot is "supported" by a gamepeice, then the points are null. Since the robot isn't in any way supported by a gamepiece, the points are definately earned.
