How big of a bubble do you have to be in to be thinking "I like cleaning" is the majority position among normal people?

Is it “I like cleaning”, or “I benefit from knowing some moron didn’t come flood the cracks of my floors and wood cabinetry, creating mold”? Yet to come across pros doing it better than me, means I don’t hire pros yet.

> Is it “I like cleaning”

Yes, that really is what was said in the original comment we're discussing.

Somehow that got defended as a (possible) majority view.

Robo vacuums are already doing this. What a time to be alive and all that.

I believe most robo vacuums have lidar and other sensors. They don't have cameras.
