3) The human player then runs over to the loading zone area, but that area is NOT marked on the floor of the human player area. The floor is ONLY marked for the robot inside the playing field. So, yes a human could lean/stretch diagonally over the railing to load-up a tetra. See rule <S06> and <S07> in chapter 4.3.2.
ps: don't touch the robot at all and don't be leaning over the rail at any other time other than loading (but that doesn't even make sense since the robot would be disabled if you were leaning...)

The highlighted area above is incorrect. As per one of the updates, the human player area is also defined by a triangle on the floor.

a) The human player can grab a tetra off of his/her stack in the human player zone and hold it during the time period between the autonomous and manual parts of the game
I do not believe this to be true either as the autonomous mode is in effect until the player mode starts. You therefore cannot touch the tetra until after your drivers are allowed to move to the driver station.
