The cars have to be moved, stopped, held in place so there must be some touching allowed so there is on some level some common sense interpretations of the rules here?

I do believe that they pretty well nailed down the permissible actions during park ferme in previous years. The teams are permitted to do certain things on the cars, whilst they have to seek authorisation to carry out other work which may then carry a time penalty.
What puzzles me somewhat is that each garage has, or certainly used to have, an official FIA observer permanently placed therein, and it should have been easy for Aston to ask or be told what they could or could not do under those circumstances because he should know the rules intimately.
