Before we spend months processing open-source robotics datasets, tell us why this is a bad idea [D]

Ps. Not pitching anything; Just trying to understand where reality differs from the narrative We're a couple of ML students, mostly worked on ML/software before, but over the last few months we've been playing with VLAs, robot datasets, and trying to understand where the field is heading. After spending a few weeks downloading robotics datasets, we were surprised by how much effort went into just getting data into a usable format. Maybe we're missing something, but it felt like every dataset had different assumptions, schemas, sensors, coordinate frames, metadata standards, and tooling.
