Well, technically, we dont use true robots, we use remotely operated weapons systems, and the guy sitting in the trailer with the joystick is still due those lifelong benefits.

But brain and CNS injuries are less likely and that huge cost is reduced. Well except for the repetitive motion injuries.
i don't make the rules, nevertheless, i can observe them. fact is, the price of shit stamped military goes up. if you want to argue about the long term costs of a future robot army v. human one, carry on.
