But why

For the first time there’s serious pressure to unionize Tesla, and this bot can walk and has thumbs.

They want to replace people.

I would be very surprised if that was actually the reason. human similar bots have been shown to be much worse than single purpose bots for decades now and tesla already uses tons of bots in its manufacturing.

The past decades they haven’t been anywhere near what they are now.

There wasn’t even any humanoid robots being mass manufactured before, that’s started just this year.
