Probably - if cost goes down to operate a machine, then the base machines can be smaller. Will eventually be interesting to go for much bigger changes... ditch the cabs, lower profiles, place your cameras in smart spots, move the pivot points so they are best for the job instead of best for a person. Vehicle distribution might change, too - heavy machines are tools and the tool you choose is a combo of best quality, right cost, speed, etc. That landscape will shift.

The variety of machines and their specificity is super fascinating and very specific. Definitely will change.
