Q: When does a Team lose the precision points?
A: The Referee removes a Precision Token from the field when the Team
Interrupts the Robot and the Robot is not completely in Home.
The Team may continue to handle the Robot until the next Launch without
worrying.  (The Team can't Interrupt the Robot until there's another
Launch.)

Rule 27 (also see RG07): INTERRUPTION PROCEDURE – If you Interrupt the
Robot, stop it instantly, then calmly pick it up for the next Launch.
Where was the Robot Interrupted?  Not Completely in Home: Lose a Precision
Token.

Rule 09:  INTERRUPTION – The next time you interact with the Robot after
Launch.
