Because a scheduler is only worth anything when it is boring, and a self-built one stops being boring the first time a token expires overnight or a network changes its video rules without telling anyone. People pay so that maintenance is somebody else's Tuesday.

What do I lose by replacing BulkPublish?
Honestly: staying connected · networks expire your auth and someone has to notice; knowing a post is malformed before the network rejects it, not after; an honest publish status when a network accepts the upload and fails minutes later; analytics pulled back per post; approvals, teams and multiple client workspaces; the platform review process that gates posting on some networks entirely. If any of those are load-bearing for you, keep paying.
