That is why you see some Turning Point flags on robot intakes and elsewhere.

I think that in some cases you can, as long as it complies with the standard rules of the game. An example of where it is legal would be using the backboards from Change Up as part of an intake (legal plastic). An example of where it would not be legal would be using the middle cross braces from the platforms in Tipping Point (the plastic is outside the thickness limit.
