    Which isn’t wrong… in theory…

    Wrong? No. Stupid? Yes.

    That’d be like saying building a car with wheels is not necessary, we use two legs and can get around everywhere!

    The whole point of technology is improving what we can do with our bodies alone. Yes, we use two eyes to drive. Yes, I wish I had some magical radar that could immediately warn me if a child is suddenly jumping in the road.

      Pretty much. They are parallell solutions, neither necessarily better than the other (though for a car radars and such probably are just objectively better). Like how wheels are better on asphalt, but legs are better on rugged terrain or forests (aka more versatile, but even then you can always augment legs with a bicycle).
