Crab Steering on Regolith

In Lunacy this year, will a crab steer be allowed in the form of a brake?
I know the rules specify that all wheels must be in orientaion with the robot, but with crab steer, you could possibly turn your wheels to stop you from gliding more efficiently before you change directions.

Is this a legit idea or do the rules not permit it?
