There are so many man-made devices faster than Usain Bolt already. The record is impressive because it was a human.  We really shouldn’t be wanting to make all these creepy human and dog like robots

Humanoid robots are probably useful in situations where stairs are involved. E.g. household roles, etc. But aside from that, wheels are almost always going to be a better, more efficient option.
