<G39> Pinning

Watching the regionals and looking forwards at nationals strategy, i have to notice the lack of pinning penalties called. I've seen some questionable calls at my own regionals and hope it hasn't been happening elsewhere.

the word "inhibit" can be interpreted loosely by the referees and I'm a little concerned at how loose the calls have been.
For example, because our robot had a way out of the pin (over the bump) we weren't considered pinned. However, we couldn't move on full power over, and the way out was over a bump into our defensive zone with another robot already there (a violation of <G29>).

What has your experience been with <G39> and does it merit an official GDC clarification for the judges?
