I don't understand. The have been many discussions about how a robot can be fully in compliance with what you quoted above and have their bumper still in the outer works and be protected while shooting. Are you disagreeing with this? Are you saying there is no protected space?

Your quote is exactly why it is legal, and protected space, all you have to do is contact courtyard carpet to launch a ball.
