Is expensive if you need to buy it and have one or two palms, not so if you can just phone and hire a man with a robot a few times a year. Professional coconut harvesters would be either moved off the path, or could invest into buying a robot and be able to reduce their risk and work also with a broken arm or having a mild disease. It depends on robot price. If a coconut harvester is getting old, I can see how their digitally native sons or grandsons would want to buy one for easing his life. The biggest problem is that 15 minutes to mount the robot (and a similar time to disassemble it again, probably), is probably more time that an experienced harvested would need to climb and take the fruit down.
