Not just the robot has to be simulated, the entire part of the world it interacts with also has to be. Even the most realistic video games resemble actual videos of the real world only very superficially.

Most realistic video games don't simulate all of the physics required. Even if we just stick to simulating the motion of the robot itself in an empty space, all of that data can be generated synthetically once at the appropriate precision and reused many times, just like training data for LLMs.
