This is reminiscent of the kind of cyber interfaces in Samuel Delany’s “Nova”; where factory functionality, for example, was mapped to a controller’s body. They built things with their 'hands’ and ‘kicked’ the finished, packaged, transportable  objects out to the docks with their ‘feet’.

This is also similar to some cyberpunk tropes about people getting addicted to cyber enhancements and ‘cyber psychosis’.
