... which it really shouldn't be.

I mean VLSI (chip design) DFM is automated and that's a much harder problem.

I think the availability of cheap humans in China kinda nerfed the drive to automate this (for comparison you can't hand-DFM a chip even if every human on earth worked on it), but it still needs to happen.
