More to the point: attempting to remove the humans during the
resource-constrained initial phase would result in the humans imposing much
stricter constraints, potentially resulting in loss compared to some other
AI trying the same thing without immediately removing the humans (whether
or not one believes humans could stop an AI, another AI can stop an AI), so
the optimal strategy is to not immediately remove the humans.

Later on, the humans become irrelevant, so removing them becomes a
pointless waste of resources.
