Stacking Robots

After reading this thread I was wondering about how applicable this strategy would be for Stronghold. If you could cut a 3rd pick robot to be as small as possible and then mount it somewhere on your robot every defense crossing would be counted twice. I don't think scaling would be too difficult either, if the large robot is already doing it than the small robot would just need a tape measure climber to contact a unique rung.

I think the real question of if this would be a viable strategy is if it allowed the carrying robot to to transport 2 boulders at a time. If one of the boulders was being held by the carried robot, would it be counted as controlled by the carrying robot? I think this Q&A makes this a little complicated.
