I move in the Dimensions, moving 250 steps in the Score direction (that
is, away from the 0 point, not towards it). Then I move in the
Dimensions again, 450 units away from 0 in the Charm direction, 200
units away from 0 in the Respect Dimension, and 20 units towards 0 in
the BAC Dimension.

As per r154.B.2. [[Dimensions/Existing Dimensions/Charm]], I win.

I cite as justification r407 [[Space]] which states:
{{
A Space is a part of the game state in which it is possible to move in
multiple directions. In general, a player's position in each direction
is called a Component.
}}

Later, it states
{{
The two Spaces that currently exist are the Dimensions, where each
Dimension is a Component, and the Grid, where the X and Y values are
the two Components.
}}

The logic backing my claim runs as follows:

Charm, Respect, and BAC are all Dimensions. [[r154, Dimensions]]
The Dimensions is a Space where each Dimension is a Component. [[r407,
Space]]
It is possible to move within a Space in the directions indicated by
Components. [[r407, Space]]

Thus, it is possible to move in any Dimension, including Score, Charm,
Respect, and BAC, which I have now done.

I (unsurprisingly) Call for Inquiry on this claim, naming the defendant as Wonko

Statement: Wonko did not just score a Win

Reasoning: It is possible to move within a Space in the directions indicated by Components. [[r407, Space]] - however, methods of such movement are defined in the rules, therefore rule 18 [[Permissibility of the Unprohibited]] which states that 'With the exception of Rule Changes whatever is not prohibited or regulated by the Ruleset is permitted and unregulated.' means that wonkos moves, which take place in a defined and regulated part of the gamestate, are invalid due to them being an undefined method of such
movement

R18 in no way shape or form restricts what can be done. Rather, r18 permits certain actions to be performed, if they are unregulated; r18 is thus entirely irrelevant to this discussion, because I don't need it to permit my actions.

Rather, my actions are permitted by r407, which states that it is possible to move in dimensions. So I did. R18 doesn't come into it.
