So G02 says teleop starts the instant hybrid hits 0. I realize this doesn't agree with reality or the intro section, but the intro section isn't definitive, as they say. So they finish crossing in teleop and get the 2 points.
However, if tele starts when the hybrid clock reaches zero, it is no longer a 2 min period, thus doesn't satisfy the first line of its definition. However, if you look at the pause as simply the end of hybrid it can last for any period of time and tele can be the 2 mins immediately following it. Fun thing to debate
