Sure. But a "musical" mixer will program the automation in
real time,
and then perhaps tweak it a bit in unreal time. You move
the fader to
make the mix sound right and the automation system
remembers what you
did and can reproduce it.

I see nothing sacred there.

The person who looks at waveforms and says
"this is a bit loud, I think it needs to go down 5 dB" and
then draws
a volume envelope do to that doesn't get to hear what he's
done until
he plays the track.

Not so with Audition/CE. If you move an envelope line in
real time, the sound from that track changes in real time.
Given all the different flavors of envelope that can control
a given track at the same time...
