You have a pretty solid point! Popping's changed quite a lot over the years. It used to be really funky and more mechanical. Some of the more recent sub-genres have kept the whole mechanical feel (dubstep/glitch for example), but for the most part it hasn't. Here's one of my favourite poppers, you can kind of see how it doesn't really look robotic, but it still looks really, really cool! I love looking at popping in general, and the dance battles can be really, really good. A lot of those people put real character into their dance style. (edited because I put the wrong link)
