and besides, it is more difficult to make a four legged version walk round as if it were terminally constipated.
It goes without saying

A major reason to make it bipedal is because much of our surrounding is foundationally geared towards human habitation. If all we're going to do is make these things walk about in open space then I see your point. Ultimately the goal is to have these things be among people without having to make special provision for them (think stairs, aisles, doors etc.)

I don't find it creepy. Robots intelligence (created by us) is so less sophisticated that they cannot perform simple walking (until now). Still I think it is kinda slow, since it falls from a push (humans react really fast and do not). And I don't think that energy system is autonomous like ours. And I don't even imagine high-level intellectual functions. We are so far from "intelligent" robots.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
