You are correct, by the rule (G23)..."...if a super cell is removed from the cell rack before the last 20 seconds of the match...penalties will be assigned..."
I fully agree that we do not like seeing penaltys called for things that are not illegal. But, we have seen some referees call a penalty for even touching it. So the list is meant to make sure even the appearance of a penalty is not there... so this list went to the extreme to prevent penalties. They did not see any reason to even touch it before the 20 seconds. The list is meant to prevent penalties at at the extremes, some Payload Specialist do not read the rules.
