I like this one, it reminds me of the typical pick&place task performed by industrial robots — except that this task is on a different, angelic (dream) scale.

Thanks, Hermann! I find the “pick and place robots,” or should I say robotic arms, fascinating. I have more robot stories coming out shortly…
