Like the power suits in Starship Troopers

The 1959 novel version, not the 1997 film version, as they didn't have
the budget for the latter.

Why don't we just cut out the middleman and go right to an all-robot
combat war? I know, because then a lot of people will be out of a job
and humans are still far cheaper to produce and train, plus there are
plenty more where those came from.

Kind of like the Flintstone episode where Fred was the stunt double in
a film and every time they wanted to use somethink like fake boulders
for his safety, a film crewman would say "You know how much fake
boulders cost?!", with the reply always being "Okay, we'll use real ones."
