why is hydraulics junk?
2 comments

Perhaps because of the potentially slower actuation speed, but you also generally get a lot more power from hydraulics so im not sure one can claim it is junk. Far less acrobatic, but also far more sumo wrestler.
Less fit for impressive youtube videos. I'm sure they have other boring utilities for the technology.
