A human needs to verify that the pipeline passes when it is activated,
fix disable it or fix things if the CI isn't green. It does not make
sense to activate it unattended, as it would risk causing a lot of
failing pipelines and useless noise and a culture where people loose
respect for "pipeline greenness".
