How is "Drive straight" a longer message than "Drive straight"?

I don't understand.
"Drive straight" is not a message, it's an action. With the sequential button presses in your example you're obeying the "do no more than four actions" rule, but you're still violating the "don't use changes in signal states to send long messages" rule.
