Not just laziness. If I do it manually every day, I will definitely fuck it up at some point.
Maybe novices.
Factorio players being like “why shouldn’t I automate night vision goggles production.”

You never know how many of your friends are going to be buying the game and joining you this week!
Fr- friends? In my factory! I don’t think so. /s
And those yearly things happen just often enough that I’ve forgotten how to do them by the next time, so that adds to that column.

There’s no way to know when my annual compliance training will come up, so yes, I will automate it with puppeteer and Jev.
I am the living embodiment of failing to remember this every time I decide to automate something, or write a script to make something happen with one word.

It doesn’t even have to take 5 minutes, it just has to be something I don’t want to deal with anymore

If I have to do the same thing more than twice, I’m going to look for the ways to automate it. I hate repetitive tasks.
I became a programmer because I was too lazy to not automate.
