Jim, I don't think anyone is disputing the fact that the GDC can decide that this looks like 2 robots and therefore it is. What most are disputing is that the GDC accuses 1519 of lawyering, and then goes through extreme manipulations of the rules to prove their own point. If they had just said, "Nope. We never envisioned a team doing something like this, but now that it's done, we can't allow it because it is two robots. We admit that we didn't craft the rules carefully enough. If you had asked earlier, we would have made a rule to cover it. We're sorry, but you will have to decide between the two of your designs, and scrap the other."
