Wait until they get a load of the popemobile But in all seriousness, this is the same sort of caging currently put around robots to prevent humans being struck by an unexpected stray movement. While collaborative robots are starting to become more common, the overwhelming majority of industrial robots will go right through a person effortlessly and not even notice they hit anything. While I question whether this would actually work as intended (the caging is designed to keep a weak human out, and is usually placed around a perimeter out of reach of the robot which could likely break through it), the desire for it is sensible. The caging could also be good for the hazards besides the robots, for example loads falling from significant heights as a result of whatever sort of issue the human is in there to deal with.
