This seems to be a very straight forward ruling.

I suppose it is engineering nature to try and exploit loopholes.

You may set up your robot to interpret a sent command as "go left one foot". You may then push a button to move left one foot. You may not have a remote control that you can hold down a button that repeatedly sends the signal to move left one foot.

A command should be simple. Along the lines of "descore the ball in the xx position".

Trying to "drive" your robot with the remote is not what First is looking for.
