The only problem I see with that argument is you could spend a long imaging session relying on autofocus and find your stars are out of focus when you come to process. I'd rather spend a bit of time during the image capture phase making sure the raw data is as good as it can be. There's not much point having a fully automated capture process if the results are not satisfactory.
