If they were to do the climb again after this, and make it to the top, would it count as an additional 30 points or nothing at all?

It's max climb plus whatever climb points you happen to actually get. So, if they'd made it to the top, 30 (climb) plus 30 (max climb) plus 20 (Technical) is a whopping 80-point penalty. Speed climbers, take note!

That didn't happen last year after balancing.

Last year's rules do not apply to this year. Q&A has said that robots who are interfered with can climb for as many points as they can, along with the foul points.

I understand that and the rule is the same as last year's but I did not see that Q&A question.

Oh hey I asked that question. I thought it was an interesting, if not unexpected, response. I'm glad to see it was an actually applicable question.
