As far as I can tell, the manual doesn't mention tote orientation for stack scoring, so I wouldn't think that it matters. It does seem like a good Q&A clarification, though.

One way to pick up the upside down totes would be to have two arms (pneumatic cylinders, probably) that come from either side and grab the tote. Then it doesn't matter which orientation it's in. The fastest way to the recycle bins involves moving a lot of totes - the exact route will probably depend on your robot's intake mechanisms.
On a similar note, we tried making a stack with some totes upside down today, and while it's not as stable as a properly stacked stack, it's still reasonably stable. Definitely not impossible.
