It’s likely many users still use Automator (which is from 2005). Removing it could break workflows for many people if removed. There’s a bunch of older apps in macOS like this. The latest version of macOS still has AirPort Utility, for example.
I just wish these features could be updated and integrated into the OS or new app instead all these vestigial apps hanging around.
Like bringing the airport utility’s functionality into the OS proper should be part of the OS updates.
But instead, the network section in system prefs somehow gets MORE obtuse over time while good functionality languishes in a forgotten app and major OS updates are now primarily new emojis for messages.
