You won’t have an eka claw. You will have a humanoid. It’s a no brainer. You will get used to the “danger” just like we got used to the danger involved in driving a car or ceiling fans or propane home heating. Every year you’ll have a handful of injuries/deaths but eventually because of how useful they are no one will care and rightfully so.

Well, except we have 5 decades of cautionary tales in film that show plausible ways this goes sideways when everything is connected to the internet.

what's the danger involved with ceiling fans (unless you are Korean)?

now that I think about it I can only remember videos of people doing really stupid things with them, then being surprised by really bad results, but never heard about any of them endangering anyone during normal operation
