And a robot would not need antibiotics for a cat bite.

Huh?
How the heck did you extrapolate that from what I said?
In response to Jacin asking if it would be best to bring humans back should we ever go extinct, you said:
Who would bring them back?

And no, probably not. Because humans are invasive species that cause all kinds of trouble.
Invasive species, by definition, cause trouble in the places that they've spread to. If humans are, in fact, invasive and it would be best for us to remain dead should we ever go extinct, then that would mean that other invasive species that go extinct should also be left dead, yes?
After all, invasive species cause problems wherever they infiltrate, wrecking local ecosystems and the like, so if they should be left extinct if they ever die off. That seemed to be what you were implying, even if you didn't outright state it, because you implied that the reason that humans should be left dead in the event of extinction is because they are, quote, "[an] invasive species that cause all kinds of trouble."
Therefore, other species that fit those same parameters of being "invasive species that cause all kinds of trouble" should also be left extinct, yes?
Ergo, what you said could be interpreted as you saying that you would accept the extinction of animals, insects, plants, and other organisms that are, quote, "invasive species that cause all kinds of trouble."

Well ok then.
Generally speaking, when a species is classified as invasive, there is a concerted effort to eliminate it, because of the damage it does to local environment. And said invasive species doesn't usually just go extinct. Hence the concerted effort to eliminate it. :confused:
