Does everybody understand the above two rules? Before the 20 second finale are we allowed to open the robot size as long as we touch the tower,
True

I find nothing that says this. You could hang in auto mode, as long as you were touching the tower when you expanded beyond NORMAL CONFIGURATION.

After the 20 seconds do we still need to touch the tower to open up?
During the FINALE 20 seconds, you may expand whether touching the tower or not.
