Ah, that's right. Sorry for the confusion.

Still, I think this is a rule that needs to be implemented. I understand wanting to discourage defense (something I strongly disagree with, but that's a whole other argument right there), but I think that it is a bit extreme. To me, there is not point of penalizing teams for briefly crossing the lane provided that they didn't do any damage to the other alliance's robots.

I disagree. At this point it would not be a clarification -- as the rule is quite clear -- it would be a rule change. I see no justification for changing the rules to the game at this point.
