We still don't account for them (except in the context of ANOVA post hocs).
The thinking is that (1) we're similar to other stats tools in that it's incumbent on the user to account for that, (2) a 'practical' version of accounting for multiple comparisons is to just be aware of them (as per your "p-values are quite robust here" comment), and (3) eventually this will be a really cool opportunity for us to stand out, and we do plan on eventually accounting for them--we just haven't really been able to prioritize it at this point.
Thanks for the feedback, we're very happy to have that comment brought up quite a bit, it's definitely really important, especially given the goal of democratizing data analysis.
