Why couldn't the robot just have a pole on it, that hits the button when it
runs into it?


the point of making it "hard" to hit the button is to force the robot to
do something other then, swing forward.   with a button placed at "some
point" then people are "forced" to use an RCX.  the whole reason we have
these games is to give us a GOAL, a challenge too build something.  if
it was a game of JUST monkey across, then I'd bet  $1  that you (Iain)
could do it in your sleep, with just battery box logic..
