Well, correct, people would begin to fear bots of a higher order since many
people when questioned as to why they would want a bot, stated a preference
for a subservient factotum of sorts who existed to gratify their needs. Free

as a threat, especially bots who passed any 'acid test' a human might force
the bot to endure.
