On the other hand, if you're going to bring in machinery, you need to make sure that there's enough space to stop them from crushing the other coffins - which might negate any space-savings from burying people vertically. Whereas with this, a few people put it in, which needs very little space. Besides, don't the families of deceased generally pay for their coffins?

Families do pay for the coffins, but they also pay for burial costs as well (so they'd also be paying for space and a portion of the machinery).
