Are axis limit hard stops a feature on all axes including A, B, and C?

Explanation:
Hard stops are physical barriers that limit how far an axis can travel. They aren’t guaranteed on every axis. Some axes, especially rotational ones, may rely on software-defined limits or internal stops rather than external hardware stops you can easily access. Because of this variation, you can’t assume all axes—A, B, and C included—have hard stops. Always check the specific robot’s hardware and its software limit settings to know where real physical stops exist and where soft limits are used.
