The very strong implication is that more than one battery, or battery assembly, is illegal. Now, whether or not a battery (assembly) that is not used to power a robot is actually a robot battery and thus subject to that rule is currently up for debate, or should I say some Q&A/Update clarification.
Active vs. passive, it's still a battery with the potential to leak if damaged. Now there are more than one that could potentially be damaged.
