I cannot picture these things turning and twisting down a crevasse or tunnel system with debris and rockfalls like a dog can.

A well placed 5.56 round will put it out of commission as well as anything. And directed energy will fry its electronics. They’re not terminators...yet.

Humans suffer that same frailty.
These robots will be cheap and expendable, unlike humans. The humans directing them can be thousands of miles away.

Could be. Aging myself, but there was hobbyist tech that could build something to do that in 30-60 minutes on a workbench as far back as the 1980s.
Which brings up an interesting thought: post Radio Shack, how many places can you walk into and buy electrical components with cash...?
