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.

I disagree with this. By definition the Einstein backup rules are only relevant to a very small number of teams one time a year. It is important to have a rule for this procedure in case it is needed, but I am perfectly fine referees needing to reference a manual to recall this rule.
