You want to keep heavy stuff close to the centre of mass. Heavy stuff flailing around isn't that good to keep balance and do precise movements.

- hinkley 3y agoMy arm is full of oxygen delivery and self-repair equipment. It also contains several parts of my immune system. A prosthetic arm within my lifetime will likely be lighter than my real one. Carrying around a flashlight or a multi tool embedded in a void in it wouldn't be that weird, and wouldn't upset your balance. Those running legs are already much lighter, but they don't fulfill the full range of features provided by a lower leg.
