Humanoid robots make NO sense whatsoever. A vanity project at best. A robotic arm on wheels or TARS is the most optimal design.

Humanoid robots make sense in a way that our world is built for humans. Its infrastructure - doors, door knobs, windows, stairs, furniture etc is all made with human body in bind. It's legit cheaper and more effective to make a humanoid robot than to come up with something entirely new. But of course, it depends on the objective of making a robot.

Agreed they don't make sense.
Look at robots in manufacturing, they're not all humans running around operating machinery designed for humans. They are the machinery.

household tasks are the same. The washing machine, dryer, dish washer, cooker etc are designed to be used by a human, because that's the body evolution gave us.
Not only could you design a robot that is better than a human body, multiple appendages, multiple heights, lengths, multiple abilities etc etc. You could design machines intended to integrate with the robots.
and of course you could design machines that have all the machinery and intelligence already built in. You could imagin a washing machine that just has a big hole where you dump your washing and it sorts colours, fabrics etc and washes accordingly.

The obsession with making them human like is holding us back. The tech is not there, not even close, so why bother.

This is true to a certain extent, but it's not like they'd need to make them actually be human shaped. For a robot that does generic human work you only need 3 things: hand like appendages, capability of moving in the environment like humans do and the size not being much bigger than the average human.
