They specifically said they don't want to do automated posting, to avoid writing and not interacting with the community. I see no value in them doing this, considering we can get the same content via RSS, blog page or email newsletter. Presence makes sense if it means presence. If it means a bot reposting content, anybody can do it, but the value is very low.
It wouldn't be hard to do simultaneous posting. People figured that out ages ago.
It's not a problem of complexity, it's a deliberate choice of not wanting to do that, because it is synthetic content disconnected from the community.
