Basically because "everybody" does it, i.e. each frontent has its own such driver AFAIK. But that's not a coercing point, of course. And, as I said, we could still offer the (current) gpc driver (without automake) under another (and even longer, AFAIC ;-) name.
So IMHO we need few months (or a year) for `gp' to stablise _before_ we can depreciate automake. And I think that we should have a year of depreciation before removal.
Wait a minute -- are we really talking about removing the "automake" option from the GPC command line?
Up to now, I'm heavily using it in the "autoconfed" and "automade" Makefiles for my GPC projects. :-} I wouldn't exactly be glad if it was gone.
