But, we aren’t talking about that dude.
We are talking about bench production work. Anyone with a room temp IQ Aand a modicum if manual dexterity, can be trained to perform such a task. If you can keep him busy, his costs should be a good bit below 50/hr.

No matter how you cut it there is no reason to go with hub motors over established motor, transaxle setups.
But anyone who loves wasting money can be my guest.
I see no advantage to hub motors at this point.
