How does that exception become translated to allow that axle bolt or rivet or whatever not covered by that backing material?

That bolt defined the FRAME PERIMETER. If you had a 26"x36" frame with fasteners sticking out in the BUMPER ZONE 1/4" on each side right in the corners, your FRAME PERIMETER was a 26.5"x36.5" rectangle.
This meant the rest of your robot had to fit within a vertical projection of this 26.5"x36.5" rectangle per <R16>.
After Update 6 this robot now has a FRAME PERIMETER of 26"x36". Any parts that fall within the 26.5"x36.5" projection but outside the 26"x36" projection went from perfectly legal to a violation of <R16>.
I'm not sure what part of this you disagree with so feel free to grab any of the steps out of the above and show me where I may be wrong (and I most certainly may be)
