I am not sure that the new update precludes robot on robot. The bottom robot is touching the ramp and it is supported by the ramp. It doesn't matter that there is another robot on top of it.

However, one could also argue that the upper robot must be supported by the ramp by default since it is on a robot completely supported by the ramp.

Hmmmm seems more clarification is needed here for sure.
I would say the intent of the rules doesn't preclude robot on robots, but that's just my interpretation. It's hard to believe the GDC wouldn't want you to get points for balancing robots like that, unless you're trying to use it as a loophole of sorts so you could touch the ground or something.
