Some other DAWs have a setup where automation clips or items live in some centralized place, and you can send them to multiple destinations. This is just a different design, though the functionality you can achieve should be equivalent.
I did warn of the screen real estate issue when this was in its infancy (Not that it is just a real estate issue, but also a workflow issue) the other packages that treat automation items more as traditional items and allow them to be sent anywhere and to multiple locations is THE WAY to do it, a round wheel is a round wheel, Reaper automation items are usable as is, not optimal, the equivalent can be achieved but in a slower way.

These things set Reaper apart in terms of composition, and they are the reason why a lot of Reaper users still look elsewhere to do their compositions.
Reaper is biased heavily towards recording and mixing and in that sense these AIs are good enough.
