Lifting Robots off of the Bar

I see two references to robots being lifted off of the center bar in Chicago. I had thought that one of the updates said this was not allowed, so I went back and checked:


The answer to Q78 in Update 3 says (in Part): You may not try to lift an opposing robot of the bar, per rule DQ12.

However, the answer to Q72, also in update 3 says: If a robot is pulling itself onto the bar, and another robot is in the way, it is okay to keep pulling yourself onto the bar.

I would guess that the way to interpret this is that anything goes, as long as you are trying to get your machine off of the ground. My question for everyone who has been to a regional is: Is that how the refs have been calling it, or have they also been allowing robots to be lifted off of the bar by robots that were not trying to lift themselves? Do tell.
