Isn't trackerless astrophotography one of the main use cases for software that can do stacking like Siril [0] and similar tools [1] out there?

Siril is for integrating a lot of images together that are tracked and then removing the background. While you may be able to use it untracked it is primarily for tracked images.
Yes those software do align the images based on the stars so it can compensate for movement.
