This response was issued more than two weeks after the one that is causing all of this "heartache", and the question describes a much more severe case of "blocking" during hybrid - using TWO robots. While I agree the addition of all of the detailed scenarios in this question somewhat complicates things, would this not have been a perfect opportunity for the GDC to clarify their intent/position with regard to "blocking" in hybrid mode if they intended it to be illegal? They chose NOT TO.
And - also from my earlier post:

Stu, the GDC never examines specific hypothetical situations that teams lay out in Q&A, from my experience following it (somewhat) closely. I don't think we can read into their lack of a response meaning consent.

You can'it impede in hybrid. It only counts in teleoperated mode.
