However, looking at the recent pics of robots, and considering various designs, robots on the bar will most likely be at various heights above the platform. Many also use pneumatics. After a match is scored, will FIRST judges/refs let team members onto the field in order to detach the robots in order as they come down and to let air out from the pneumatics so various devices may retract?

At competition, the officals will let you tether your bots after the match like normal to remove them from the field. You can release all pneumatics and other devices while tethered. The bar will also be lowered if need be. Though it is expected, you must have your bot off the field withing 30secs of the time you are called on to remove it, SO make it easily manually removable.
