<G23> can cause a penalty to be "excused" if the opposing alliance causes he penalty to happen. I could argue that red wouldn't have taken a penalty if blue hadn't lost a tread and therefore blue caused red to take a penalty.
I prefer the other argument better. It's more interesting.

The "in this manner" portion of this rule is referencing the line before that says the robot was disabled after being incapacitated. My argument is that the referee cannot know that they are truly incapacitated unless they at least make an attempt to move out of the way.
