The only information I've seen as to why they used the robot to deliver a bomb was to reduce the risk of death or serious injury to other officers. I haven't seen any information they used the bomb in an attempt to detonate a suspected bomb via sympathetic detonation. I haven't seen an explanation as to why they chose that COA over waiting him out.
Reducing the risk of death or injury to officers can be a slippery slope, IMO. What if some department somewhere decides that poison gas might serve the same interest?
Not likely, but I'm just throwing it out there to fuel discussion.
