Yep, That is suspected. Mom's thends to do things like that. Mine did anyway
after warning me for 1000 times to clean up the mess.
But that was many year ago. Now i tell the same to my daughter.

So what did you learn about this?
That the design is a good and strong design.
That your solder works are very good.
That you allway have to throw your garbage first into the empty container,
just
in case someone else throws your Bot away.
And many other wierd thoughts.
