Learning to reach arbitrary goals from sparse feedback requires agents to infer a rich notion of reachability across state--goal pairs. Goal-conditioned reinforcement learning (GCRL) tackles this challenge by learning policies that generalize across goals, but this generalization becomes increasingly difficult as the underlying dynamics become high-dimensional, hybrid, or contact-dependent. To address this issue, physics-informed GCRL (Pi-GCRL) introduces optimal-control-inspired inductive biases into goal-conditioned value learning. While Pi-GCRL methods have proven effective in navigation and object-free goal-reaching domains, their reliability in contact-rich tasks remains unclear, where contact interactions induce hybrid dynamics, mode-dependent controllability, and nonsmooth value landscapes. In this work, we show that these structural properties can cause existing Pi-GCRL methods to degrade when applied naively to contact-rich manipulation. Motivated by this analysis, we introduce contact-aware and hierarchical formulations that apply physics-informed inductive biases selectively across the manipulation problem. Our results provide a principled step toward extending Pi-GCRL to contact-rich manipulation.
