Might be worth asking the Q&A for a clarification. That does seem harsh, though maybe if it's an accident then it's not the drive team propping it open but rather "luck" or something propping it open.

And there's really no benefit to the alliance if this happens, since the chute is now completely blocked by a tote. So I really doubt the refs would call that, especially if the human player immediately rectifies the situation.

Please check the Team Update called The Noodle Agreement. It specifies a new change about this topic.

From our experiments, once that tote starts to slide out, it's not stopping. We don't have the real door setup, but I really doubt that it would be able to "pin" the tote like that.
