If a red bot were to push a blue bot all the way across the field it would be fine so long as the blue bot doesn't have a trackball and isn't in their homezone.

I would consider those all shady moves that have been played out by teams this year.
You are not making any friends on the field (or off) when you try any of these.
Maybe to some teams this isn't what it's all about, and that trophy means more than the spirit of the game.
Accidental tipping, or something like that is different, especially when drivers come over and apologize for actions like that even after a match no matter who won or lost. GP in effect! w00t!
But the above mentioned other actions, and thus finding loopholes in rules on the field won't make you popular in the long run.
That's all I'm trying to say.
