Perhaps a software program sends a generic reply after several days' wait, so that they can save on labor costs.

I wonder why I, or anyone for that matter, even bothers writing to airlines about service problems, large or small
When I get such generic responses, I reply back and add the line "You're probably not actually reading this, but you have no addressed any of my original issues." It seems to work.
