It doesn't allow for defense though. The offending robot (the red robot in my example) gets a technical-foul and a red card. It's still very illegal, it just robs the blue team of bridge points. When the original version of the rules came out, before being fully supported was a requirement for balancing, the penalty for [G25] gave the offending team a technical-foul, a red card and consolation bridge points for the alliance that was interfered with, which I believe is the intent.

The new rules introduce an ambiguity where defense is still a very severe penalty (disqualification), but the alliance that was interfered with may not receive their bridge points due to the interference.
