Not necasarrily. The tower can be made out of something soft and cushiony. I don't know what the material is, but the Science Museum of Virginia has this thing where you build an Arch, and it has this hard yet soft to the touch and extremely light weight material on the pieces. I've had teammates throw them at my face and it didn't even sting a little. We've piled 30 of them on someone else and they stood up with minimum ease saying there was no weight on them. Something like that could make the towers. Part of inspection could be making sure nothing critical on the robot is exposed from the top.
