If you don't have a way to manually push the algo, then you'd never be able to sell features like promoted posts and the like. And why would you not want a feature to sell?

Ads can be inserted into any kind of feed, there is no difference between chronological and algorithmic. It’s usually a simple calculation of target ads displayed per posts viewed, with per user/advertiser caps.
