Nice one. I haven't thought about our to-be-automated tasks as technical debt.

Neither had I. We've historically waited till it bothered someone so much they switched to FDD (Frustration Driven Development) and just got it done.

I hadn't thought much about it either until I joined a new team recently. They actually refer to this type of tech debt as repeatedly kicking yourself in the face.

Cool point, I have also never thought of this... I will be sharing this with my manager and colleagues :)
