The bricks shouldn't be as expensive as they are if its not that expensive to create them due to the whole thing being robotic.

Did you counted the cost of the Machines, the designing for the machines, the ingeniering of machines, the best sort of plastic, the best fit of pieces, the shipping from denmark to all nations, the find-new-ways/designs-ingenieurs, the hole thing ist nor that cheap...
Just take a look to Enlighten. Cool copys of sets/pieces, but not the original quality of Lego. (Ok, its enough for a brickfilm-set).
But, yes, Lego is not cheap - but its LEGO
It would be nice if it wasn't so expensive, but they do make A LOT of it. It must cost a lot to make that much, and ship it ACROSS the world!
Theres a lot of work:
Machine Design/Construction/Maintenance
Theme/Concept Designers
Brick Desginers
Packaging
ABS PLASTIC
Facility Operation (Power, Heating, etc)
Shipping
ALL OF THAT GOES INTO
I really don't care. LEGO sets are kept on store shelves for quite a while, so I have time to get the money to buy them.

That video was amazing. When I saw all of those Lego heads I was like but then I was like
They are getting very expensive though the more money it takes to buy them the more time it takes us to earn (or embezzel ) money
Interesting Video
