Just because a task is done with human hands, doesn't mean it has to be done with a robotic one. Our robot vacuum cleaners aren't Rosie pushing a standing vacuum.

That is true. OTOH, if you want a robot to do your laundry and pick up socks from the floor it will have to fit through your bedroom door and reach your washing machine. These environments are not factories. And if homes need to change they won't instantly.
Yes, it's likely that the human competitive advantage going forward is that we'll be cheaper than robots when you need to fit into awkward spaces. Truly a fulfilling career.
