Robot Sizing Question

There is a part in the rule book under "THE ROBOT" rules section I dont quite understand:

Quote:
Rule <R07> - It states that Robot dimensions are that If your robot is 4 ft tall then it must weigh 120 lbs, If it is 5 ft tall it must weigh 110 lbs, and if it is 6ft tall it must weigh 100 lbs.
Okay, off of this basic summary of the rule I have a couple of questions:
  • if you chose to make a 5 ft tall robot for example, does it have to weigh exactly 110 lbs or can it be less?
  • If your robot was say 5 ft 8", would it be put in the 6 ft class or the 5 ft class?
  • If you have an arm, is the size determined by the height of the arm when its fully erect or can it be bent?
  • In terms of the class that you choose, does the robot have to exactly meet those measurements. By that I mean, If I pick the 6 ft class does my robot have to be exactly 6 feet?
  • Can the height of your robot exceed 6 ft, because I know that the highest spider leg in the rack is approximately 7 ft 8" high from the ground?
