The window in which these calculations remain relevant is rapidly closing with the development of robots and drones.

Robots and drones require maintenance and operators. The so-called advantage will always be vulnerable to their ability to repair and produce them. Which diminishes greatly as they kill off the very population that does just that.

Their power is a mirage.

Most people with the right hacker mindset and skills aren't billionaires. Those bots are a pretty beefy force multiplier when they suddenly obey someone else.
