As for the auto-upgrade button, I think it's a hopeless cause, because of how inflexible upgrades are in SE4. I've chosen to use them to make it possible to do some logical transformation of facilities, as requested by some players, for expensive facilities, allowing planetary development without so much scrapping. Because there are some interesting choices involved, it will almost never make sense to issue empire-wide "upgrade facilities" orders. Even in unmodded SE4, I almost always find that button to be more of a booby trap than a help.

Well, YMMV (and it obviously does) but I always used to use the empire-wide "upgrade facilities" button in vanilla SE4, and miss it's use in Proportions. Not enough to stop playing Proportions mind, but I do wonder why you can't upgrade smoothly from one type of facility to the next.
