 Corporates in censor-land social media are often semiautomated, and the human component is often plural and hierarchical, or even outsourced. I don't know if bot/not bot really captures the variability in note-sources.

What decisions will people make based on this information?

 It's an optional field and/or we can have a separate tag for individual notes.
Just want to kick off the discussion, as it fits into the type of "reading" client we want to build and provides more information than we currently have.

If they don't like the PR, we can change it, or they can refuse it.

 I also would point out that npubs aren't rate-limited, or something. You can have a corporate bot and a human-led bot that replies to comments under the bot stuff.

Or have 
- a project npub, that publishes release notes and stuff, (labeled as "bot", even if everything isn't automated)
- a support npub, run by a group of people, that responds to questions or complaints
- and then the developers have their own npubs

You can create feeds that clearly separate things by source. That's less weird and creepy. 😅
