See update here.
It says the robot must be completely supported by the bridge to be scored.

If you're saying that completely also allows you to ride another robot, I think you might just be overthinking this. I mean by that logic, being completely supported by the bridge would be impossible, because you're really just being supported by the carpet, the floor, the foundation, the earth, ad nauseum.

They might come out with a further confirmation either way, but for now I would avoid overthinking this too much.
