Controversial issues and their resolutions.

I believe this is a violation of the letter of the rules: you cannot proceed to a neighboring respawn without clearing the guard (including a shifted one).

I was responding to all of this yesterday... Pash, I understand that you uphold the letter of the law, but my advice to you: don't dwell on this too much... Better to focus on other things (taking a Dragon Utopia before your opponent, etc.!!!) And if your opponents make claims against you for similar cases, with the intent to hand you a tech loss, then just tell them to fuck off, like I do, and don't play with them anymore. This issue isn't even worth our attention. Better to channel your efforts elsewhere.
