The Michaelangelo arm is pretty incredible, but I think it’ll be rendered obsolete once prosthetics with tactile feedback become widely available.
Being able to feel the position of your hand and whether or not it’s touching anything is a lot more important than the versatility or precision of the motors themselves.
How the heck did they find the worm and who saved the droppings for study? If I found a frog and frog poop in my clothes, I would not save either when I re-washed everything.

As a dude I would be scared to death to take a leak with that arm. You know, just in case.

And…unfortunately, the zoologists who discovered the moneys in a volcano cone disappeared after their next expedition.
