The exact wording is as follows.
It is absolutely clear that your ROBOT is your Team's mechanical solution to this year's game. Your ROBOT must include all the systems listed to compete; power, comms, control, BUMPERS, and the ability to move. If you have not included all of the following on your ROBOT then it is not fit to compete.
Further if you read R2 and the Blue Box it has details that you exclude the BUMPERS from the definition of your FRAME PERIMETER.

I am not sure how you're drawing the conclusion that I changed the words, I literally copied and pasted them verbatim from the manual.
THe issue isn't that your bumpers define your frame perimeter, the issue is that
all parts of the robot have to be within the frame perimeter for starting config, and the bumpers are defined as part of the robot.
