The pictures are not meant to be rules. If your opening is less than 26", you will almost certainly be fine as long as the bumpers cover the remaining foot with 6" on each side. (On a "wide" robot, it's 26"; a "narrow" robot has 16"due to the rules/the interpretation of protected.)
However, the pictures are not intended to show anything other than examples of legality with regards to one specific part of the rule.
