However, the choice of violation makes it seem like a team committing the pinning against them would be immune as well, or simply no action would be taken for robot-to-robot contact.
This was discussed heavily at the beginning of the season, and i believe the GDC has addressed this wording many times in their forum. This rule is not up for questioning, sure it is not worded properly but the understanding by most (if not all) is that this applies to the offensive team attempting to score.
