Yes and No.

Output always creates more work, due to second law of thermodynamics (entropy). So, the more output you have, the more work you need to fight entropy. May be the Robots can deal with entropy too, but we aren't there yet.

...You're gonna have to explain that one, because I don't see how those things are connected at all.

every good and service created need additional maintenance/fixing/organizing. It also increases complexity

If we're positing a fully robotic factory to create the products, I feel very comfortable positing that either a) the products are fully disposable, or b) there can also be fully robotic maintenance/fixing/organizing of said products.

That's only true if we're at 100% efficiency. Which I can say with good certainty, we are not.
