I'm sorry that I cannot suggest a better alternative, but that rule didn't seem fair. Maybe if a robot gets a red card, then it has to sit out the next match and allow an alternate to play?

I disagree. After having been on the side that got intentionally run into while trying to hang in two different matches and watching our hanging arm get bashed violent against the tower (luckily not breaking it), I'd stick with the current rule.

I would agree that:
Auton balls 2 points apiece
Hanging 4 points
Loser score = 2 * their own score

In addition:

You can expand when not touching your tower (so the refs don't have to micro manage)
