My first-read-through thought on why they removed that language was maybe to make it clear that robots who hang on the RUNG but are not supported by the wall (or any other part of) of the tower still count?
My question is, why would a team choose to SCALE by parking on another robot when CAPTURE needs each robot in its own zone?

I also like how the FTC folks are able to get involved with the FRC process this year, but it's always a bit of a let down when you're told you can't launch things into the air. - s_forbes [more]
