You can’t intentionally impede someone/something’s progress repeatedly, I think is the point. She’s welcome to stand off to the side and protest all she wants, but not deliberately and continually preventing the robot from moving.
If she didn’t like buses and just stood in the bus lane one day and blocked traffic, she’d be arrested just the same.

That’s nowhere comparable. A sidewalk is ostensibly an area for pedestrians to be, whether in movement or stationary. It is not a road, and definitely not a robot road. If the robot is too stupid to navigate someone standing in an area designed for people to stand, that’s not the person’s fault. You want a comparable situation? This is like you sitting on a public bench in a park, then I come up to you and demand you to move so I can sit. After you say no, I call the cops and they arrest you.
