Re: How does 469 not violate <R19>?

I'm looking at the intentional part. You're getting onto the bump, where you intentionally contact another robot above the bumper zone.

Yes, <G37> says that that contact is expected and generally permissible during that timeframe. However, it also calls out incidental contact. <G38-A> makes it clear that intentional contact outside the bumper zone is a penalty at best. After the first time or two, it will be painfully obvious that this is intentional, and you'll start getting penalized, would be my guess as to what would happen.
