the question is:
does the 72 inches include the robot's length or it is only about the accesories expantion?

Simply put, that's the whole banana.
Because the extensions are part of the robot, the robot and extensions are measured as one. 72"X72" is maximum, period. That is, outside the home zone. Inside the home zone is unlimited.
