I agree that the legs are useless, but the reason why they are building humanoid robots with arms rather then just making task specific robots is because task specific robots have been proven to be unscalable. Humanoid robot could in future replace any manual worker with not much hassle, just plop them there, tell them what to do or download job specific AI, and then when you want to fire them you resell them. You can build these in bulk and still find endless number of customers. Task specific robot will get like few offers, which requires each robot to be handmade with no economy if scale, probably have no universal standards, be impossible to resell and finally require paperwork and planning to implement.
So ironically it is the task specific non humanoid ones that are attractive to dumbasses who will waste money on useless bullshit while the more economic decision is to use a humanoid unless you plan on buying 50 or more of them to do one job.
