The point of contention is whether or not the two assemblies, taken together, violate any of the rules that apply to a ROBOT. I think it's been adequately demonstrated that they do not. Together, they follow the letter of the rules.

There's only one problem: the manual does not explicitly define what a ROBOT is. The Game Design Committee agrees with your take, saying that 1519 built two robots. I'm still not convinced they built two ROBOTs, but the GDC is backing the inspectors who decided that's what they did.
