What's a "stanchion"?
Assuming you're serious (not sure what you meant by the smiley)...the post system that is anchored in the floor as opposed to the wall or ceiling.

I'm also not sure why the clinician would fuss over the details of rim, etc. - is it not just flat-out illegal to grab the "goal" (which includes rim, mesh and the flange) while the ball is in the cylinder?
No, it's not illegal to grab the goal while the ball is in the cylinder. It's illegal to touch the ball while the ball is in the cylinder (or to pull the goal down such that it subsequently touches the ball before the goal returns to the normal position).

It's illegal to touch the goal when the ball is in the goal or touching the goal.

The cylinder is the space above the goal but not the goal itself.
