If your tournament allows robots, it is very easy to place them in the sitout seats.

I am aware of that. I would be nice to have one less step to do that is easy to automate.

The tournament does not have to allow robots (as in people registering together with a robot) for Director to be able to manually substitute sitouts with robots.

A frequent request to BBO already.
Similar and even more useful would be to have robots automatically replace dropouts, and for players who reenter after disconnection to be able to regain their place at the end of the current hand, all without manual intervention.

Some tournaments, such as ACBL speedballs, have the feature that the original player automatically replaces a sub at the end of the hand when they come back.
If robot subs are used in these tournaments, this works the same way.
