Automation means you actually have to run out to get more.

A backup bottle means you never are out - if you remember any time during the 2-month period it takes to use up a bottle. Or have an automated system.

Automation could mean it analyzes your average usage, and when you will run out in (amount of time it takes product to get to you + 20% for a buffer) it will order more.

Or hell, when you are at 50/25/10%, order another.

And if you are uncomfortable with it ordering it for you, it could just add it to a shopping list for you.
