Please.  There were more complex villains on (the best of) the
Saturday morning cartoons of the '80s and '90s, and you know it.

But that is enough time for a lotta heat to build up (more than we bio-units can generate) and pretty soon, mysterious house fires where no one is home, but the firemen discover some really odd looking material right where the fire appears to have originated, burned beyond recognition of course, but the owners know what happened.

Thermal inefficiency like that makes for inferior products.  Robots
don't do that unless poorly designed, or intentionally designed to do
that.
