I think there's also some lost in translation here - I think the 157 km is the whole highway, some portion of which was paved autonomously. That kind of thing has been done before in China, I found videos and stories from the past few years.

157 km is a lot also - too much asphalt for one hopper. I'd like to see the asphalt re-up system and how automated it is.

Don't get me wrong, autonomous construction like this is definitely cool, but like you said, this isn't a bunch of robots that you just point where you want a road.
