"Its contiguity extension would preceed its rotary deployment"

Push the Y out beyond the frame and then rotate it down...

think linkages...or two separate controlled motions.

I don't think you have to go that far. An H would satisfy the requirement as long as it was 1) “an appendage is a contiguous assembly that may extend beyond the frame”

Are putting words on the GDC's mouth about the rest if this?
