No, CW does *not* "always get through".

then the proceder have been teling another lie

Assuming the robot listens before sending well it looks like anything
else I hear about in HF

No, robots do *not* listen before transmitting which is against the
regs and is the crux of the problem.

then the problem is a lack of enforcement not a rules issue at all

A human operator causing QRM is either lousy operating practice or an
accident, a robot blindly causing QRM via it's inherent design is
illegal. One solution might be to come up with a robot which tunes
around it's frequency before transmitting. There's one for you
code-writers to chew on.

Or for it just to listen a bit for a signal first
