Sooo, what would be the purpose of a robot made to be just like a human ? a robot by definition is a semi-perfect machine, why would you want to humanize it, making it more flawed ?

Just for scientific purposes. Seeing how close we can get to making something life-like. Kinda like making realistic games, we don't HAVE to, we can create games with absolute perfect people, but people tend to prefer more like-like organic looks in their games, or some do, at least. Basically, because we can, because it's an interesting concept. 

I'm pretty shure that for scientific purposes anything we would be interested in would be something biological, not mechanical, I mean what do you want to see ? how a robot interacts with people ? when we still don't fully understand how people interact with eachother ? Imho it's useless research :v
