The revlevant rule:

A ROBOT is not considered in the END ZONE if it is touching the field outside the defined END ZONE border. The tapeline designating the END ZONE border is considered “in” the END ZONE.

The definition of a robot:

The team didn't put the tetra on the field, did they?


Of course...it really isn't this straight foward, is it? All this stuff about tetras being part of the robot. I'd choose to believe that it's only true regarding a human player touching the tetra. But my preferred precedent here is that of a robot starting with a tetra.

And it certainly is true that the tetra itself may extend beyond the dimensions of the robot. The robot in this case doesn't include the tetra, why would it in any case?
Why, when loading a tetra of course! Touching a tetra already on the robot is a violation of <S07> for touching your robot. Notice, this is a safety rule. Touching a tetra already on the bot is a bit of a safety concern. Aside from that, though, is there any other reason?
