No theory there at all. A robot can be 38" in length. Plus a robot can have an appendage that extends an additional 14" outside the frame perimeter. That would 52" alone. Multiplied by 2, could mean 104" of robots and appendages trying to occupy 59" of space!!! I would assume a foul or technical foul on each, so they would offset
