Our form is a payoff for having extreme hand dexterity and brain mass, but a machine doesn't need to worry so much about that. Still, watch a monkey try to weave something. They just kind of can't do it.
For robots, it means they can use all our facilities and tools. People always get all "erm why isn't that robot a little thing on wheels" and then someone asks it to open a door, get milk out of a fridge and make them a coffee, and suddenly being a tiny weird little thing becomes a huge pain in the ass.
For mechs, it's because it looks cool. Makes a lot more sense for power armor or other limb-in-limb designs. You can do some good stuff with muscle tracer technology though, because a mech that's really just a big animated person with full control and dexterity actually would be pretty neat.
