Why would Steemit want to build these into the system when other users can build the tools and use their bots to interact with the STEEM blockchain? Isn't that what decentralization is about?

Bots are Ruining the Mainstream Potential of Steemit
Why not submit the idea into GitHub. This is an open source project, is it not? What's the difference between developing a bot which invades the social space, compared to doing it behind the scenes? Linux is an open source OS... I don't have any bots telling me what to do when I boot it up.

Good point. I think some bots, not all bot, will highlight short comings in the current system. It might make sense to modify the system in response, e.g. to prevent manipulation of the system in some way. I do however think there is a benefit to keeping some bots as bots. For example, there might emerge a rival to @wang that serves the same function but does so more effectively. By not incorporating @wang into the system we are allowing peoples subjective opinions to decide with of these bots best serve a particular function.
