The fact that this made it to the news cycle is indicative enough of the airbnb owner smelling money once they found out a robotics company is involved, regardless of the extent of damage/wear

Knowing the cost of home ownership, it’s not unlikely to imagine the reported damages are well within what he’s asking. Given that repair work, filing paper with the courts, etc is a major PITA, if this guy was just looking for a payout you’d think he’d ask for a lot more.

Eh? This sort of corporate misbehaviour would obviously make the news; it’s both scummy and just bizarre. That makes for good news.
