That’s like saying “if you’re not using <ESx feature released three months ago>, you’re doing it wrong”.

The vast majority of websites still use traditional, yearly carts without automation. It may not be perfect, but it’s not the worst thing in the world.

> three months

Three years.

In these three years, I've seen at least 5 outages because of expired certs. Maybe if you have only one domain, the ROI is not as clear.
