Some Activate parsing problem with Give that robot "Ability" #278

Description

@Zergla

Sometimes, when creating a long "Activate:", I have a problem where I need to give an ability to a chosen robot, but the parsing only work if the ability has no "" surrounding it, meaning I need to "give that robot Ability" as the last action, and I can't give complicated ability because it's ambiguous whether it is part of the Activate, or the given ability. For example :
At the end of each of your turn, destroy every robot with 0 health, then create a 0/0/0 robot named "Holy shield" on each adjacent tile, then choose all robots with 0 health, then give that robot 1 health, then give that robot At the start of each of your turn, destroy this robot.
Parse but
At the end of each of your turn, destroy every robot with 0 health, then create a 0/0/0 robot named "Holy shield" on each adjacent tile, then choose all robots with 0 health, then give that robot 1 health, then give that robot " At the start of each of your turn, destroy this robot ".
Doesn't

Robots suffering this problem are:

They are pretty similar in construction so I believe it to be a problem with create a robot named "X" Because it may treat it as a robot named (X" text text text Give that robot "Ability)
Kinda like how create a robot named "Bob" with ability "Haste" Create a robot named Bob" with ability "Haste
