I completely agree, although the attitude at facilities where this has been done extensively is always "how can we reduce the alert/popup/notification burden" because it always invariably slows things down and annoys people. And after a while the muscle memory stuff comes in as well - a typical alert can pop up tens of times a day with very high false positive rate.

An automated "checklist generation" is easy via subscription to data vendors, whereas manual curation takes years (even when only codifying best practices). And we can't just have one set of alerts for the world because everyone's (patient demographics, risk appetite, clinical sophistication level, computer skills, political situation) is different.
