It occurred to me that Rule G6 (A single ALLIANCE member may not be in contact with both a TOTE and the CHUTE DOOR simultaneously) eliminates the need for rules about HP and Robot interaction. The robot could slam into the Tote and hurt the Human Player. Not being in contact with the Tote when it is exposed to the Field reduces that possibility. Note, Rule G5 prevents another HP from being in contact with the exposed Tote (word "single" in Rule G6).

There is not a safety concern for Litter, hence no need for a similar Litter rule.
