If you're being attacked, troops on the ground aren't necessarily better than autonomous robots. Robots don't rape and pillage. An advancing robotic army doesn't incentivize the retreating force in adopting a scorched earth tactic, since the robots don't need buildings to house them, groceries or farms. Maybe I read too much about the Nanking massacre recently, but having it fresh in my mind makes me question whether the often repeated assumption that humans need to be involved, is to be taken at face value. Maybe it's a good idea to keep humans at a safe distance, even if they're actively part of the conflict.
