We have no capacity at all to make "seed robots". Imagining seed robots and orbital gigaprojects distracts from the only thing we know can work.

Moreover, there is always the need to continue to explore and diversify research and development. It allows to spread the risks (even if modestly, given that most resources go to the priority projects) and discover the necessary paths to go ahead (which is required even for the critical paths for the priority projects).
