>Everything is easy once you learn how to do it.

Which you still have to do. Again, this literally does nothing but plant seeds for you, which is a pretty easy job.

>I'm curious which of the things I listed aren't significant issues?

All of them. The only harmful interaction between plants anyone is going to experience in their garden is beans and peas getting slowed by onions. And that doesn't even matter much, it just takes a little longer for your beans to be ready to harvest. Acidity is largely irrelevant, some plants tolerate or even prefer acidic soil, but almost all plants grown in a vegetable garden do just fine with neutral to slightly acidic soil. And watering is a non-issue, use hugels or at least ghetto it up with "lasagna" beds.

To do what? Solve problems that are already solved and do not require any sort of mechanical solution?
