Sorry, Dave. But since the subject of the rule specifically is the lifted robot, and since there is no reference to the status of the lifting robot in the rule, it has to be scored as a successful lift regardless of the intent of the rule.

The lifted robot IS supported by the game piece since it is a transitive property as described by the GDC.
