Cool explanation. Could you please let more clear in which script the "Other things" can be executed? I mean is this placed in client or server script? Because the server is programmed to execute a task, so I believe for example the guys can do your pizza and also other tasks such as washing some dishes in pizza restaurant while the pizza is inside the oven? Or the client node can do other things such making a juice at home while waits the server produces the pizza? I did not understand this concept of other things applied to a robot application...I mean with a drone, for example, "whos is who" in drone example, where is the client node and where is the server node, and which of them are performing "other things"?

By the way I like that intuitive approach to the idea.
