I believe this comes from the definition of elevated, in section 7.2.

As long as a robot is in contact with the tower, and is above the plane created by the platform, the it is elevated. The platform is considered part of the tower, therefore if you are sitting on the platform, then you are elevated.

That is how I understand it.
