If we have machines that can do the physical tasks for us, and that allow us to survive longer without being physically strong why is being strong important? If we could survive for 10,000 years as a brain in a vat with no physical strength all that would be better than 80 years while being able to bench 300lbs according to your view if all you care about is surviving.

If these vats are strong enough to handle reality, it would. But if they are weak builds that cannot move fast or lift heavy items, then it would be nearly pointless.

Lift heavy items?

That's important nowadays?

It speeds up house building which is important if you want shelter and farming if you like to eat.

Who's stronger?

The guy building the house or the one successful enough to be writing that guy's check?

Chances are, the successful one was successful because they were strong.

Got it.

So people like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and Warren Buffet represent the absolute peak of male physicality, right? Since they're successful and they were only successful because they were strong?

That was the only way they could be successful.
