I think this potentially ignores the needs of disabled shoppers who rely on supermarket workers.

What if you have mobility issues and need someone to grab items for you? What if you have vision issues and need someone to read an ingredient list?

There will still be staff. Amazon were obviously careful to include a shelf stockist in the promotional video. Staff will still be needed to stock shelves and solve problems with the automation systems and most likely, to answer customer questions and help customers with their needs.
