But, the Blue Box clearly gives the team the ability to temporarily move a piece in order to place a robot. There is no way, even if a team tried, that it can replace the piece EXACTLY where it was. There is also the possibility that a robot cannot be placed if the game piece is not moved (1 inch farther away from the wall, but otherwise still in the box).
So, the real world implementation is: If the moved piece is place in a valid position ("are in their designated starting positions"), it is fine.
Extrapolating a little, if a team quickly moves a game piece (RC or yellow tote, and not a landfill/step tote/RC), and the pieces "are in their designated starting positions", most field staff will not say anything.
