I feel that the automation lanes and automating on tracks leaves very little room. I have to zoom an excessive amount to automate comfortably.

I guess you mean there is no scaling option for automation lanes like in the tempo track.

It would be a big improvement when we could ajust the min and max values in automation tracks.

I have voted for this request!

I made a similar feature request here: https://answers.presonus.com/27533/adjustable-scaling-resolution-for-automation-volume

However, the zoom functions are very powerful, I use these buttons all the time:

E, W: Zoom In, Zoom Out

Shift + E, Shift + W: Zoom Vertical In/Out

Alt + Shift = Zoomtool:

Alt +Shift + MouseRectangle: Zoom to Area

Alt + Shift + MouseClick: Return from zoom area (works over multiple zoom areas)

Z: Toggle zoom, Alt + Z: Zoom Full, Shift + Z: Store as specific zoom view

...and take a look at the Automation Edit functions in the manual - great workflow!
