Official Q&A: VEX V5 Robotics Competition 2025-2026: Push Back

Per: <SC4> A Robot is considered Parked if it meets all of the following criteria: a. The Robot is not contacting the Floor outside of its Alliance-colored Park Zone. b. The Robot is not contacting any Field Elements other than the inside face of the Field Perimeter, the Floor inside of its Alliance-colored Park Zone, and/or the plastic extrusions and connectors that are part of the Park Zone. Contact with these allowed elements is not required. c. The Robot is at least partially within the vertical projection of its Alliance-colored Park Zone And also per: <GG18> Use Blocks to play the game. Blocks may not be used to accomplish actions that would be otherwise illegal if they were attempted by Robot mechanisms... ....The intent of this rule is to prohibit Teams from using Blocks as 'gloves' to loophole any rule that states 'a Robot may not [do some action].' This rule is not intended to be taken in its most extreme literal interpretation, where any interaction between an Block and a Robot needs to be scrutinized with the same intensity as if it were a Robot."

Then, would a robot being fully supported by a block that does not touch the Park zone plastic pieces or tile within but only breaking the plane whilst being supported by said block meet the criteria as parked. So my question is, is using the block to support the robot off the ground count as parking or meeting the SC4 parked criteria, is the contact of the block transitive to the robot and ground outside the park zone?
