          > I like it. It does seem to me, given this guide, that we don't meatbag assistance here anymore; this could be fully automated with a cron workflow, right?

Yes, it could be fully automated. Someone should go automate it. :)

Let's have a cron workflow that does the steps listed in the linked PR and proposes changes on a regular basis.
