There used to be a CoF guideline that stated that one should not place threats and non-threats directly in line but I don't see it in the LBB. However, I would suggest that if the stage is set up such that shooter is forced to take the shot with the popper in front of the non-threat, then it's probably not a good design as the CoF is simulating breaking rule 2,
Always be sure of your target and what is behind it
, but, if the shooter has the option of moving to get a shoot solution where the non-threat is not behind the popper, it would be a better scenario. Even in the latter case, you might still have an issue in that most likely, a skilled shooter could ignore the rule 2 violation and gain an advantage by making the shot while one who did the "good" thing and moved to avoid the non-threat would be penalized although it might be possible to angle the popper in such a way as to encourage the desired solution. Another option would be to have the non-threat on a mover at least making it a timing challenge.
