Well you should probably let the engineers at Boston dynamics know your views. Maybe they just aren't familiar with wheels. They'd probably feel very silly having spent all that time on an inferior tech tree

Seriously though, these are being used for a reason. Have you ever once seen a video of one of these stuck out in the wild? Because I've seen plenty of compilations of wheeled bots stuck on curbs or sign posts

Nah, it's good to have diversity in tech development. Just because it isn't the path that I personally would have chosen doesn't mean that it's a bad idea. Tech is an iterative process. Yes, even tech like this that is gimmicky.

Now you're just acting childish. My entire comment chain is based on opinion, and you will just have to live with that. I think we're done here.
