That works if you ignore the commas after "or" and "through inaction", which does sound like a robot thing to do. Damn synths!

Programmatically, if you want it to do both, use "and"

"Nor" would be more grammatically correct and clearer in meaning, too, since they're actually telling robots what not to do.

In terms of English and grammar, you're not wrong.
