"Time and effort" required is the question. Let's not pretend that caring or not is black and white. There are quite a few shades of grey in there. So my question remains, how much can this actually be automated? Because if it can't be I wonder how many people are far enough along the time commitment spectrum needed to make this actually work manually. You can moralize all you want, but in the end regardless of how much you think people SHOULD be willing to invest of their time in making it work, it will either work or it won't.

It's up to each person how much time and effort that they can spend. There's no standard number because everyone uses Steemit at varying levels and has varying amounts of time.
Time and effort could be educating new users to not use bidbot in the first place. Why regulate when you can educate? And for the remaining stubborn individuals, the community can "more forcefully" educate them.
Steemit can prove the self-regulation idea of Blockchain, or it can perpetuate the need for a central authority to control everything. If you're not willing to work and take responsibility, you are failing to understand the fundamental purpose and benefits of a Blockchain.
Simply saying "but that's too hard" and being a naysayer is the wrong attitude. Act and be the change that you want to see.
