High-low combination?

Is this a high-low combination block of the type either Fed or NCAA disallows?

Does it make a difference if you know A2 is carrying out an assignment by blocking B1 in that manner?

Seems like (considering the way you've worded your question), these would be two separate and independent blocks, so high-low is not a relevant factor, or appropriate consideration.

Can't tell what A2 is thinking, but what his plan, or intention might be, it's his action we're supposed to be observing.
