you are leaving out a whole host of use cases bro. maybe in the past robotics was just for industrial use cases. but there are orders of magnitude other use cases that a ROS can help solve. simple things around the house , in the neighborhood, and other mechatronic integrations that would not properly called a robot. I would say the ones you are addressing with billy bob on the 3rd shift are like 1 percent of the cases. There are plenty of things you can actuate in the world that dont require sub mm repeatability. like what about tending my hydroponic vertical garden? theres nothing about the ubiquitous robotic future of humankind that needs any of the things you mentioned. thats more of an improvement on current use cases.

Bruh, take a step back for a second. ROS is a messaging system. Its like Microservices for Robotic components. If students are having trouble with ROS you might take a different angle on the purpose. When you teach ROS you are learning middleware patterns of integration first. Secondly you have to teach fundamental geometric concepts like TF. So thats why your students are having problems you are giving them too broad or too narrow or some convoluted context to reason about what they are doing. Try flipping the script.
