The application that K6MR refers to is used in a contest only by those
who decide to cheat. It's not the exception that proves the rule. As
you say, the rules for WW-Digi and other FTx contests of which I'm I'm
aware specifically prohibit such behavior. WSJT-X and JTDX do not allow
you to run automated without adding some sort of script ... which again
is prohibited.
I'd venture that, at least for now, there are more ops running excess
power in CW, SSB, or RTTY contests than there are ops running automated
bots on FTx.

In some cases this is not true. One logger makes all the decisions for you.
Your job is to sit back and watch it do its thing.
It shouldn't be the case during contest like the ww digi ! Rules say :
".... In general, automation can occur within a QSO period, e.g., auto-sequencing through the TX messages based
on receiving the appropriate RX messages. But, each QSO must have at least one operator action associated with it to
avoid robotic operation which is not permitted. One way to think about it that one operator action is required for
each “serial” QSO and for up to 3 “parallel” QSOs. After a set of up to 3 multi-streamed
QSOs are underway, any future QSO or set of multi-streamed QSOs requires another operator action."
