Or were they treating blocking the bridge as a [G25] issue? (A very big stretch.)

It's not like FIRST hasn't made ridiculous rule stretches before. I'm disappointed, though... honestly, FIRST needs to accept that sometimes teams will come up with strategies it didn't intend, and allow that to happen. Some bridge defense within the actual rules could have made the last few matches very interesting.
