R4 units, notably the R4-P designations were preferred by the Jedi because they were the sturdy cheap agromech droids, built for the rougher treatment they'd receive in the garage as opposed to the hangar. This helped them take more of a beating in the frequent Jedi dogfights. The domed R2-series heads gave them a smaller targeting silhouette.
I can't believe no one makes these. There are more complex droids on the market already. Offer an R2 unit with a line of useful everyday tool modules and upgrades, issue regular firmware upgrades. Use Bill Gates' cool new robotics operating system project... viola. The future of household droids today. No good eason this can't happen.

If only that one R1 unit didn't crash on Skarro.
If only the Kaleds didn't find it.
If only Davros didn't hatch an idea.
