That was probably one of the pointless lines ever uttered in TPM
Actually, I found it one of the few genuinely funny lines in the PT, those battledroids are more hilarious than the OT stormtroopers.
Which is why I love the scene with SBDs and R2 in ROTS, the squeaky voices, the beatings, everything. How anyone could equate that with unfunny Jar-Jar antics, I´ll never understand.

On another note, why do robots drive robot army vehicles!!!?!! They knew the vehicles were gonna be for a robot army... why the fuck didn't they just give them robot brains??!??!
Because sometimes, they might need biologicals to drive them, if the droids malfunction or are lost.

Same reason there are sounds and explosions in space. If you don't get it, I don't know how you made it past the first shot of the first episode of Star Wars. Go watch Star Trek.
There are sounds and explosions in space in ST as well. Still makes little sense other than being 'spectacle'.
