You mean on some individual person's laptop when that person remembers to run it?

But the whole point is not to have to do that. What you're asking for is basically just `npm upgrade` or `cargo upgrade` or whatever? The point of Renovate, Dependabot etc. is exactly the automated/scheduled running of those package manager updates.

Sigh. The answer to why they are this way is that it’s the whole point that they are this way.

Well yes? You're complaining that a motorbike has an engine when you're perfectly capable of and would rather power it with your own two legs.
