Quotes from the rules Section 7.2 Definitions:
Quote:
|
ELEVATED: A ROBOT that is completely above the plane of the PLATFORM and in contact with the TOWER shall be considered ELEVATED.
|
Quote:
|
SUSPENDED: A ROBOT only in contact with an ELEVATED ROBOT and/or a SUSPENDED ROBOT shall be considered SUSPENDED.

I'm fairly certain that the GDC intended that a ROBOT in contact with 2 ELEVATED ROBOTS to be considered SUSPENDED.
However you do have a point. As the rules currently state, it is ambiguous if a robot is touching only 2 elevated robots, is considered suspended or not. Also, if such a robot isn't considered suspended, then such robot isn't elevated as it is not touching the tower.
Perhaps the GDC should revise the rule to state something along the lines:
"SUSPENDED: A ROBOT only in contact with one or more ELEVATED ROBOTS and/or one or more SUSPENDED ROBOTS shall be considered SUSPENDED."
