I don't understand why you think a human-inspired general purpose robot won't be able to learn to deal with the issues in your bullet point list.

We're already seeing in AI that given human examples they can "learn" to act the same way, and a robot wouldn't have to go from never having done any plastering to being an expert plasterer in a single shot. They can be trained once using the expertise of professionals (both explanations, and videos of them doing work) such that they don't make the same mistakes you make on a first attempt - and once trained once, that knowledge can be rolled out to all robots running that software rather than needing to teach each one individually. Hell, even without expert advise in the training, they could even learn how to do it by trying it in a demo room (or a virtual environment) thousands of times until they figure out what does and doesn't lead to the desired end result...
