For sure. Still much cheaper than vacuuming every day.

I appreciate that this is a function of the specific environment and robot you buy, but as a personal anecdote, this doesn't happen to me in practice. There was a setup cost, but once that was done, it doesn't get stuck.
> Emptying the vacuum bag
Not that frequent at all, considering that daily vacuuming keeps things remarkably clean and thus little is added to the main bag in the docking station each day. This is also far less work and far more preferable than doing the vacuuming myself.
I can't imagine living in a place that has too little dirt that you don't have to empty a bag but so much that you have to clean it everyday. I do know places where maids clean the floor daily because why not, but that is different.
