Just look at all the pieces/flakes under the ramp from last year's stack attack game. So based on that rule above, I would either have to say, no robot can hang, or I could say that if it's a situation like team 41, I'd count them as hanging. So what if a piece falls off. But too late to change that now

If a molecule falls off then it's not part of the robot anymore and doesn't count.
In the picture, the belt is still on the robot and touching the platform, so they don't count.
"Don't be a lawyer", or something like that.
