nothing makes me feel more out of touch with younger people than when I see a person taking up a third of the frame talking into their webcam with a ring light badly superimposed on the video theyre explaining to the viewer while chunky block text overlays appear and dissapear

Pretty cool. Does make me wonder functionally if the robot part actually increases the odds of success, or if it just means fewer people put at risk. Because it both came under fire and hit a mine. But maybe because it's smaller it was less likely to be detected than a crewed vehicle? Maybe it would have been hit more or more fatally if it was larger?
