But a robot war is an endless war. There will always be more robots to fight until the economy is completely exhausted.

The history of warfare, hell the literal current warfare happening in Ukraine makes this entire argument unbelievably specious.

There were more wars before any type of mechanisation of warfare, with the only slow down really happening after nuclear weapons were developed.
