I'm sorry, but there is very little similarity between these two actions. The 190 robot takes control of the trackball while in its home stretch. In the process of moving the ball around the field, in order for it to cross the other finish line, its arm enters the previous quadrant without the robot ever leaving its home stretch. That is a violation of <G22>. The 27 hurdle simply shoots the ball from a different quadrant - something that is no violation of G22, or any other rules, at least as far as I can see.
