Preferring something else over the Wagos is a serious POV. We don't have too much trouble with Wago terminals but I'd feel better using screw terminals on the robots. My little company builds racks of equipment used on ships and planes for the Navy and Air Force. These are high vibration environments (like the robots) and Wago-like terminals are not allowed and for good reason. Tinning the wire, twisting the wire or using solid core wire is also not allowed but certain ferrules are allowed.
