A. There is no explicit width limit for a Robot appendage. Per Rule [R21], "Robots may extend one appendage up to 14 in. beyond a single edge of their Frame Perimeter at any time."

Contiguous - From Websters
1: being in actual contact : touching along a boundary or at a point of angles
2: adjacent 2
3: next or near in time or sequence
4: touching or connected throughout in an unbroken sequence <contiguous row houses>
