You _can_ home automatically (when LinuxCNC in changed to machine-on state) but for many machines, this is quite dangerous...

Because homing makes large possibly fast motions which could maim or kill someone working in a "pinch" area. Not something you want to happen without very deliberate action from the machine operator (not just a side effect of enabling the machine)
