I think that any discussion of de-scoring is pretty moot, from a logistics perspective.
Even if you can de-score balls in your own trailer, there are still two other trailers on your alliance that the opposing alliance is now focusing on because they know you'll try to de-score their pieces. So, now your de-scoring is for nothing.
Secondly, the energy and time you spend de-scoring pieces could be much more efficiently and effectively in legally scoring pieces as the game is designed...which seems much more graciously professional to me.

Overall, the gain of de-scoring opposing pieces is negligible compared to the penalty risk for outside of bumper zone contact as well as the loss of time you could be using to score your own moon rocks.
