I'd argue that you're using a bad design if a critical system on your
machine is open-loop and relies on timing. You can't blame that on an
unreliable power source - your machine should be able to operate reliably
under all conditions that might arise. Asking for AC in that case is the
easy way out.
I don't think anyone's going to get tangled up in a cord if it's logically
designed (ie, trail it out the back, directly toward the fixed wall that the
robot starts against).
So, I dunno. Doesn't matter to me, I guess!
