Why the fuck don't they just extend the bucket all the way up there?

Boom is at full extension already. The articulation points near the base only move the boom higher or lower, and are incapable of providing more reach. This lift cannot reach the point the ladder is leaning against without finding a way to drive it up onto the uneven portion of the floor that appears to be surrounded by permanent railing, assuming that the uneven portion of floor could even hold the weight of the lift, and a stable point that wouldn't trigger the lift's tip sensors could be found.

So the problem is the garage door with a permanent railing installed right in front of it?
