In what scenario would exosuited workers be more economic than automation?

In Warlords, my own sci-fi project, I wanted to tap into exosuits, but didn't want them to be one off rich boy toys or just make little to no practical sense. So I'm wondering what industry, if any, could make use of exosuits and have them be cheaper then robotic counterparts (right now I'm thinking maybe mining)?
Note:
- Warlords is set only 100"“150ish years in the future so nothing too crazy.
- Exosuits are roughly a few feet taller and much bulkier than the average human. They are also powered by small nuclear reactors if energy is a factor.
- The average "working man suit" gives the user roughly 10x the strength of the average human.
