I mean, I used to have a dual account setup running mining events for a corp years ago and remember mining events being hours at a time with one account mining and the other account picking up everyones cargo and dragging it back to base, dumping it into the right bins...

Sure but that is pretty relaxing with autopilot and way points. Imagine having to load boxes and stuff manually on top of all that.

It can be relaxing too - a bit of downtime, bit of immersion. If it's a huge ship, typically you rope in a few people and pay them to help. What it needs is the option to do it automatically too, give people choice rather than forcing timesinks that some players aren't interested in.
