Are you willing to pay for more?

Robovacuums seem to have hit a sweet spot - they do just enough on their own to justify their costs by saving you time and effort. Solving the corner cases you mentioned is possible, but there is not a strong enough economic incentive for that.

It's a winner-takes-all market, so there are absolutely strong economic incentives to build the best robovacuum control software.
