Wheels win.

I'm sorry, but the idea that robots of the future will be just like humans is very midcurve. It's a shame so much capital and focus is spent on building them these days.

Planes don't flap their wings. Boats don't use flippers. Fixed airfoils and propellers are much, much better at accomplishing their intended goals.

The idea that human-like feet and hands are ideal is anthropocentric and not very creative. Fulfilling 1950s visions of the future isn't ideal in all cases.

Build things that are better than the status quo, don't just make more of the status quo. Evolution is iteration.
