> "is this a problem I would love to have?"

It's actually something I use all the time when on a small team. My argument goes something like this though: "lets work on it when we have an actual problem to solve, right now, we're just making one up." Basically, once manually doing something becomes a part-time job, then it is worth automating. Before then, it is simply an invented problem.
