This is pretty neat not gonna lie. I wonder now if something similar can be done with Deliveroo or similar - on day X if certain conditions are met (eg: working late), have preprogrammed order Y submitted when approximately Z distance from house.

Why would you lie about this being pretty neat? Seems like a weird thing to clarify.
It's usually spelled "ngl" and seems to be a stock phrase that's used more-or-less as an opposite of "/s".
Its just an expression, dont overthink it.
Wire it up to a fitness tracker and only have enough pizza delivered to keep you at a calorie deficit so that you lose weight.
Add enough pizza alternatives to make it a somewhat plausible diet and that's an actually great idea - for the crowd that can afford a fully delivery-based diet.
Yes, it’s seems like food ordering services should have good APIs for this—why not make it easy for people to integrate food ordering (and paying!) into IFTTT-style hacks?!
They might fear abuse or trolls
Also not being able to put ads down your throat via API
