I too think this rule is going to come in an update (the one saying you can't immobilize the opponents).

But I'm not SO sure about that anymore. Last year I was very impressed with FIRST's thought's about Gracious Professionalism when they said robots could drag the others.

I vote against that kind of thing. It takes a lot of creativity, time, and skills to build a good robot that scores a lot of points in a very efficient way, but it's not so difficult to build a bulldozer that gives the good robot a hug and keeps holding it for the rest of the game.
