I am curious if anyone who has experience in wet labs can tell me why they're not more automated like a warehouse. There are robotic liquid handlers, but samples are still usually manually moved from instrument to instrument.

I know there is probably a lot of complexity I am unaware of, but I am still curious folks' thoughts.
