Likewise, other ROBOTS will not

incidental contact will not be penalized.

-Extension to extension contact between two ROBOTS with appendages outside the 28-
inch by 38-inch starting footprint will generally not be penalized.
That rule isn't any clearer.

Must not, but incidental will not be penalized.
Generaly won't be penalized?
