The inherent problem with the ProtectStation law is that the AI doesn't really follow space law the same way a human does. Instead, the AI needs to have its laws dictated to it; that's the entire reason for the laws in the first place. With the sole exception of a hyperspecific list of what does and doesn't qualify as "damage to station property", the AI has no standard to go on. If this occurs, the AI player then has the ability to fill in the gaps however they want, which has the potential to result in supercopping that would make Elite Security blanch.
