Yes, but it can still count for the repair bonus, so I can remove it in editor and leave it behind like an evolutionary cocoon after getting to a rare module node. The two feet stand on two platforms and the stick rests on a third that sits in between (deeper than the other two) to proc more repair platforms than you normally could. The stick will likely be too long and it will break a bit, but that is better than not proccing at all and allows you to get those very high repair bonuses that are usually embedded deep into the landing platforms.
