Even without RT I think it'd be beneficial to tune graphics settings depending on context, if it's an action/combat scene there's likely aspects the player isn't paying attention to. I think the challenge is it's more developer work whether it's done by implementing some automatic detection or manually being set scene by scene during development (which studios probably do already where they can set up specific arenas). I'd guess an additional task is making sure there's no glaring difference between tuning levels, and setting a baseline you can't go beneath.
