   I don't see why electric motors are not backdriveable enough. Boston Dynamics' Spot uses electric motors with harmonic drive gearboxes (or some other backdriveable transmission) as an example of this. Similarly, series elastic act

   I'd don't know what you mean by "performs like" but it's definitely significantly closer in runtime speed after the first run to compiled languages than interpreted (in particular Python/Matlab). Anyways, my po

   I don't know about other languages, but in Julia I've heard people often say that loops end up faster than the equivalent vectorized code. So while this is true for Python/Matlab I don't think it is good universal advice
