Ok, that's advanced, nice that it will do this for you.
Sounds like the same thing, just with MusE you have to do it manually.
Sounds funny, 'manual automation', 'automatic automation'....
Er, question... What if I didn't want those automatic fades at borders?
Can they be turned off or adjusted for fine tweaking?
Does Ardour have some sort of averaging or filtering feature to be
used for smoothing the joints?

You use the wrong tool.
With ardour:
Slice the original take, move the ends to overlap a tiny bit with the new
take, let the automatic fades do their job.
Or move the boundaries edge to edge and use the fact that ardour has a
slight fade-in/-out at region borders because they would pop otherwise
regardless whether they overlap with another region or not.
Works like charm and doesn't need automation. I do not really understand what the problem is
with using MIDI control
change for mixers. The resolution? For 2 data bytes there are 127 * 127
= 16129 steps. The number of channels? It's unlimited when using as
much IOs as needed. IMO there already is a standard for all apps, it's
called MIDI.
IMO automation is overrated, it's useful, but OTOH how often is it
needed to change settings during an opus? Most times a mix, selected
synth etc. are fixed from the start to the end of an opus. For example,
normally a musician plays an instrument dynamically by the touch or by
using a volume pedal. Dynamic for the loudness seldom is done by a
fader after the recording is done.
I disagree.
Automation, especially audio automation, is extremely important.
