It's not that we don't want robots doing it - honestly that'd be pretty cool. It's that we want to be sure the people that are being replaced are being taken care of.
I imagine a post-scarcity world where all basic needs are met for everyone on the planet without question, and with minimal need for human labour, and that more as technical overseers. People would be free to work as much or as little as they want at whatever they want for their own betterment, or the betterment of the world, or do nothing at all if they want, or whatever. Is that too much to ask?
It sounds utopian...
It is!
