> I fully expect to see lights out grocery stores in the near future, I’m a bit surprised no one has tried it yet.

Do you mean fully automated? I think it's the pick/place of irregular objects that's the problem.

In the UK, grocery deliveries are pretty cheap and available widely.

I actually just looked up ocado to show you a video of the human packers and found that mid last year they were running a fully automated warehouse, and then that it burned down about a month ago.
