Does a same device to same device transfer count for points? ex. (Pulley -> Pulley)

In the rules, it doesn't say that same device -> same device transfers don't count, however in an invitational the MP proctors weren't counting same device transfers, so I just want some clarification.

In the rules part 4c, it says: "Scorable transfers are of one Simple Machine Type to a different Simple Machine Type." So like your example, a pulley to a pulley does not count for points.

another thing you can do is create a list of every scoreable transfer and then cross out the ones that are simple machine to same simple machine.

What if its 2nd class lever to 3rd class lever?

That would not count as a scorable transfer because a 2nd class lever is the same simple machine as a 3rd class lever.
