And it actually is addressed somewhat in the manual:

While this isn't really a rule, it suggests that it wouldn't be advised to drive on game pieces, and would be against the spirit of this and other rules (namely no damaging field elements).

If you set four game pieces on the ground next to each other and you had a light robot, they would be able to support the weight at 4".
But I'm not really sure what to make of <R37>, since that wouldn't be "pulling" but I don't know if it honors the intent of the rule.
And it's true that the "game piece" may or may not be an "element". Another thing for the Q&A.
