Lightbulb Twisting the Pool Noodles

So I was wondering if we can twist the pool noodles into a loose knot so that the HP can throw them like a frisbee, which will cut down on the random element that comes with throwing them like a javelin.

The only potential violation that I could see was G16, which included tying under the list of prohibited interactions with field elements. However, the way that the associated violation was phrased seemed to indicate that this was limited to the way that the robot interacts with the field elements, not how the HP interacts.

Quote:
VIOLATION: FOUL. If the Head REFEREE determines that further damage is likely to occur, offending ROBOT will be DISABLED.
Corrective action (such as eliminating sharp edges, removing the damaging MECHANISM, and/or re-Inspection) may be
required before the ROBOT will be allowed to compete in subsequent MATCHES.
