It is interesting, but also kind of annoying that this game shows you stuff that you can't build, but shows it with a lock symbol next to it. Oh well, something to look forward to

Because you can still work it manually when you unlock it. You just can’t automate it until later. This gives you a chance to experience how it works before just slapping a tribesman on it.

That might apply to many things, but no way am I going to try farming manually. It is something that is somewhat optional to begin with. I let my tribesman doing the farming. They don't seem to be able to understand how to make seeds though. Also they will plant seeds when they have no fertilizer for them. They are pretty dumb about it. Not really liking how the farming works in this game, but maybe I just need to understand it better.

The automation is a bit incomplete. It still requires a lot of work on the player’s end. You can’t set minimum storage amounts so need to manually check levels and tweak orders to avoid shortages/overflows, harvesters won’t repair properly so tools become extremely disposable, camp upkeep will overstock torches so they have DAYS of fuel and use up all the fuel leaving others to sputter out, and the farming requires you to keep checking on seed and fertilizer levels, not to mention despite having rain collectors and wells I still need to refill water containers for craft stations manually my tribesmen never do it.
