But if it's E-stopped, it can't be penalized.

I would assume that if an E-stopped robot fell into it's opponent's zone while a partner was there, the partner would need to get its *wheels* out of there in a hurry to avoid getting penalized. I can "easily" block both goals with one working robot that can push and one E-stopped one, leaving the door open for blocking both goals and not getting any penalties, if <G29> isn't applied to the running robot.
