I don't interpret G207 and G208 the same way Nick does here. I would understand the "transitively through CARGO" statement as saying that you can't contact opponent robots by using a ball as an intermediary (i.e. smashing them with a ball between you). The reason I think that is the meaning is the use of "through" rather than something like "with" cargo. This word choice implies that the contact is being transmitted through the ball. I do not think you would get a penalty for errant balls that you caused to bounce around since that is not initiating transitive contact.
kswaid1- and this is why I loved making these videos to engage on topics! I think the way your viewing it is totally a valid thought, and after the fact I had thought about this too. I think it’ll be a deciding factor for sure, and the referees will be looking for wether it is “egregious” or not, again not an official thought but just my thought on it. I’ll be curious to see if anything comes out in the Q&A regarding this and if there is I’ll be sure to follow up on it. Thanks for the comment!! -Nick Jr
