<G22> Direction Of Traffic – ROBOTS must proceed around the TRACK in a counter-clockwise
direction. Once a ROBOT has CROSSED a LANE MARKER or FINISH LINE, it shall not
break the plane of the line by moving in the clockwise direction. A PENALTY will be
assigned for each infraction.

This rule in its wording implies that you can break the plane if the robot never crosses that line. Thus, as 190's robot never crosses any lines in the entire match, their mechanism is perfectly legal. Granted, that's rather lawyering it, but anything to help a great team. Congratulations on going for the cool idea rather than the safe one.
