but aren't the Waymo(s) trained on data which most likely did not include these robots yet?

You can say that about nearly 100% of humans as well.

So I'm finding it hard to find a release date for humans, but I'm fairly sure they predated the invention of self-driving cars.

For example I seem to remember being alive in the 1990s
