There's another point to be made here...

If a pair of GDC members, one of whom is the Head Ref, have to refer to the manual, that they wrote, to make a call, because they aren't sure they remember the rule, then it just might be that the said tome is getting a little thick...

Admittedly, the backup robot rules are in the "obscure" Section 9, which tends to be overlooked in the rush to get to Sections 6, 7, and 8.
