On picking the 4th robot, am I correct in interpreting that using the 4th is optional but never mandatory? If one or two of the four robots break down, would another robot then be allowed to be used as a backup?

Nope

6. With Alliances of 4 robots, there will be no replacement robots allowed in case of any robot on an alliance being unable to play.

I love these changes (although 15 points for a keeper may be too many....but if 116 keeps hitting them, I'm not gonna complain )
