That's what a reasonable observer would probably conclude if they saw a chain hit a bump during a match. The chain/bump issue would have been a nice thing to let slip by and not worry too much about.
But since someone asked, and the GDC specified in the Q&A that such contact is not allowed, it looks like another pesky little design constraint that we need to follow.
I haven't seen a ruling yet that calls frame members traction devices (and so I think coincidental contact would be permitted), but I'd be a bit irritated if one showed up.
