No Hurdling Matches

I've been thinking and I know at some point during the year there is going to be a match where both alliances do not have a robot that can hurdle or even get a trackball off the overpass. The trackballs will score 12 points for being on the overpass at the end of the game, from rule <G14>,

meaning that each team will get 24 total points added to their scores.

At first I thought they wouldn't score because of rule <G12>,

But that only applies to crossing the finish lines or hurdling, and not to them setting on the overpass.

So this means that the alliance that can get the most laps, either in Hybrid or Teleoperated periods, will win. Which will be a true race to the finish! It's going to be one of the most exciting matches to see. There aren't going to come that often so enjoy them while you can. They will be even more rare if the random pairings for the Qualification Matches are the same as last years.

What are your thought on a match like this?
