Well, the pre-Automat Rolleiflex cameras and the Rollecords and the Baby line and the 2.8GX and FX also lack the film feelers. Only the direct Automat to 3.5F/2.8F family have this "automatic" loading system, the reason for the "Automat" name. Peter probably thought that the name had been adopted as praise for a certain New York eatery!
