automatic=yes/no changeset tag

[Marc-marc-marc]

if I read the code correctly

• changeset tag automatic is set by osm_bot_abstraction_layer.py L25 from automatic_status
• automatic_status is set in generic_bot_retagging.py L24 from is_in_manual_mode

so

• if you are in "is_in_manual_mode" True, it's not an mechanical/bot edit anymore but changeset tag bot=yes is still set (and automatic=no) (bot=no seems better to express that despite using a created_by that is "bot like", it's a reviewed edit
• if you are in "is_in_manual_mode" False, automatic=yes is set, undocumented duplicate of mechanical/bot=yes

what's the usecase of it ?

I guess that what is mentioned here makes sense.

I would accept PR changing this, there is also decent chance that I will modify this.

if you are in "is_in_manual_mode" True, it's not an mechanical/bot edit anymore but changeset tag bot=yes is still set

not anymore from looking at code
