The house I grew up in, in the UK, was never re-sided, re-roofed or required its exterior re-painted in at least 200 years and parts of it 600 years
These cheap houses built in the US create a lot of maintenance and waste. Siding/roofing seems to need to be replaced every 15 years or so
Some friends are just going through the process of re-roofing. I asked them about going with a metal roof, or some other kind that might last longer. Their attitude was they don't plan on being in the house that long. In 15 years it'll be the next owners problem

But we should have 'skin in the game'. Removing the risk, by using robots, lowers the barriers to engage in conflicts and may lead us to behave more aggressively than we would have done otherwise.
