Except those robotic factories are going to spring up right next to, and in place of, the existing factories and will plug right into the distribution infrastructure that already exists. The path of least resistance is not to bootstrap a completely new manufacturing and distribution system in a completely different place (the US). No matter how tempting it seems from your efficiency point of view, things sprout from existing buds. America chopped off all its buds and is left languishing at the mercy of its suppliers. That was a huge strategic mistake.
