58,000 types of products. Drone trollies with hoists. Robot arms for packing. How many orders can it actually fill? Is it an efficient use of space? If they talked about that, I missed it. I suspect it's not as rosy as it is sensational.

Imagine limiting type of stock, like Aldi does. Do you really need more than a conveyor belt with on-ramps from each product bay, and a strong jet of air, to fill an order? And that's old technology.
