Well I wouldn't call an excavator automation exactly. But at the same time, you think ten guys digging a ditch at least some of them aren't made redundant when you get an excavator? You don't need ten excavators, and maybe you don't need 1 excavator driver and 9 ditch diggers...

I mean I think you're engaging in selective reasoning.
