What upsides does a humanoid killer robot have over, for example a drone killer robot? The latter already exists, can move greater distances at higher speeds, has an extra axis of movement, can get up when it falls over etc etc

    Terrain becomes an asset rather than an obstacle, accessibility as a persistent shock assault and breacher unit, can deliver heavier payloads without having to sacrifice itself in single or tandem strikes, can hold territory, not simply pound it from the air

    A camouflaged humanoid robot with a heavy grenade launcher mindlessly walking far behind enemy lines can do more damage than ten microdrones
