You answered it yourself: and will eventually be remote operators.
If the cars need a human 50% of the time, and you move the operators to a call center, you can get away with fewer drivers (probably quite a bit more than half the number because of queueing theory). You also need to pay drivers less if they can work from home (they won’t lose working hours driving empty cars) You will also, likely, use less fuel, especially if you make your cars smaller.
