Was it the battery pack? Looking at https://www.adafruit.com/product/5579 and https://www.adafruit.com/product/1201 it should be fairly possible to get to a more reasonable size. As an alternative to the leg, having the vibration as something in the collar might be an alternative.

One of the "hmm... things to make" is a lidar detector for things behind a car that then is mapped to an array of the vibration motors that are in the back of a driver's seat - so that you could feel a car passing you.

I always wished the throttle to be linked to slip sensor on wheels, say push back throttle a bit more when the wheels start slipping and not just wonders why WOT doesn't accelerate as fast as usual all while ECU is pulling power because of slip

We had users complain about migrating to MS Teams as the text part of it is almost entirely a piece of shit that every competitor does orders of magnitude better but management said "fuck it, we're migrating regardless", throwing oh-so-great arguments like "our customers also use it"

Pretty much same argument could be said against checklists ('paper controlling humans is a violation of basic human dignity'), but it is a thing that consistently improves outcomes in medicine.

In general, it is restricting autonomy in order to improve consistency and quality.

Only if you're extremely dishonest in comparisions.

Checklists at its core is just a list of common/required actions grouped in a list to don't forget during routine tasks. There is nothing limiting here, it is just a tool to aid repetitive/rare/complex tasks.
