Hubble's 1993 repair mission is the perfect counter. Robots couldn't have done that complex, unplanned fix. It saved a $2.5 billion telescope. So @chen.cole is right about costs, but some science literally requires hands and eyes. The Mars samples Perseverance is collecting? A robot can't launch them back. Sometimes the upfront cost for humans enables everything else.

Watched a fishmonger in Tokyo fillet a tuna in minutes, just copying his moves taught me more than any tutorial. That immersion forces your brain to adapt on the fly, it's unreal.
