Until there is like ten times more content than we currently have, yes, everything should be available to everyone. People are borequitting because there isn't enough variety in gameplay as it is, there's no reason for further reduction of content.

There's a reason that virtually all large villages use farming bots to feed their animals.

I guess good farming bots aren't available to everyone, so the plebians do miss out as intended.

Zero user input/supervision required, and thus able to be automatically scheduled via the command line. As far as I know none do this, although some clients offer scripting engines and hooks that enable you to make something similar enough yourself without having to touch a compiler.

I highly doubt that anyone has 100% automated farming with time scheduled scripts and stuff. It is most definitely possible. But I doubt that anyone has done it.

It's mostly because a zero user input required farming bot is almost impossible to make generically, but it's extremely time efficient for big groups to spend the time to make an effective bot for their specific base layout.
