The purpose of a code review is to have a human check for mistakes. 
This doesn't help avoid that need.

We could perhaps automate some of the more mechanical parts, but that 
would require a volunteer to contribute the code to do it.  Unless you 
are volunteering to write the code yourself, it is unlikely that 
anything will come from this.  We have already automated some of the 
easy parts by the way.
