Something I worry about: I imagine rich people who mostly wouldn't concern themselves with long-term outcomes of environmental destruction or global catastrophe may still feel a bit of a pause going full force into risky plans for the future if their personal fortresses would require human labor for upkeep. They may feel a bit of a reluctance to pursue policies fearless of shit hitting the fan due to the chance that in a post-law world, nothing would stop their army of servants from killing them without remorse. That reluctance won't exist once humanoid robots are a sufficient replacement for human labor.
