Do DISCS under the active control of a ROBOT count towards the limits defined by the PLAYING CONFIGURATION? STARTING CONFIGURATION?

You little... Spoilsport!

In all seriousness, I think this would have been a pretty good YMTC topic, and definitely a good one for Q&A to answer. IMO, right now, there is nothing forbidding this strategy. After Q&A speaks, there may be an interpretation or rule to do that--but if they don't put one out now, there may be some few disc-type blockers popping up this weekend from alert competitors.
