Got it. The thing I keep banging my head on in that regard is the assumption that GF went with a cloud-based motion planning/control setup to (1) leverage cloud server power and (2) make the hardware simpler. The first seems a bit pointless: it's a fairly trivial problem for anything worthy of the name "computer" built in the last decade. And, based on the hardware they ended up stuffing into the beast, the second didn't happen.
