What other previous game elements/features can you extract from this game hint? It's possible we're seeing a combination of games from years past.

Yes, but they have never been a particularly important feature. In 2004 many teams elected to just climb straight to the top of the platform via the shear edge since the goal was hard to get around if you climbed the stairs. Extra smart teams just hung from the floor (i.e. 71).
The column reminds me of the tall PVC tube goals FIRST used frequently prior to 2005. We saw them as trailers in 2009, but they used to show up almost every year in the 1990s and first part of this decade.
