Since `RobotMerger` is accessed sequentially by the single-threaded `Vision` pipeline, reusing a class-level dictionary is perfectly safe and thread-isolated from the `Ai` runner threads. This eliminates roughly ~37 heap allocations per frame at ~100Hz (~3,700 allocs/sec) and drastically reduces Gen-0 garbage collection pressure.
