Well, at least he's a fairly sophisticated yard care droid. The old Nova Labs WILL-E series (a groundskeeping variant of their WALL-E sanitation droid) knew one thing and one thing only: mowing level grass areas with right-angle corners. Any task more complicated would flummox their tiny robobrains to the point where they would occasionally get violent, which is why you never see them around any more.
