There are more player bots (non-RMT) than there are players that have or will quit because of the lack of action, if there have been any at all. SE knows this. People not fond of the lack of action are at the disadvantage of only being worth one subscription, compared to the hundreds of subs that use bots. You're asking SE to expend resources so they can take in less money. The downside of not doing it is what, an incredibly small percentage of players being irritated? Nothing will change until a larger number of players make a fuss or SE starts getting some bad press.
