Exactly! That's what I love! Consequently, it's also the one thing about Baldurs Gate 3 that I think is genuinely bad and very short sighted. There have been countless checks I've failed in that game because of that whole "autocrit/autofail" thing. It doesn't make any sense. You build a character to be good at a thing so that the minimum they can do is still better than anyone else but you have a perpetual 5% chance of catastrophic failure? No. Fuck that.
I don't run autochecks and autofails and I never will because I want my players to feel like their build actually matters.
