Homeostasis is the main autonomic function of the hypothalamus.What this means is maintaining the body's main system function as is.

Autonomic nerve function in body
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) contributes to the stability of the internal environment of the body (homeostasis). The autonomic nervous system continuously makes adjustments to our body to maintain equilibrium. The ANS regulates cardiac and smooth muscles and glands. One example of the function of the autonomic nervous system is when our pupils constrict when bright light is shining into our eyes. There are two main branches of the autonomic nervous system, the sympathetic and parasympathetic.

The nervous system controls breathing rate.
"Autonomic" functions are the functions of the body that occur involuntarily, that is, they happen and you have no control over them. Example of autonomic functions in human are the regulation of the heartbeat and the secretion of the hormones.
The function of the autonomic nervous system is to control involuntary actions, or body functions that must operate even without conscious awareness of those functions. It regulates heart activity, acting like brakes and accelerators to decrease or increase the heart rate.

The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary functions of the body, such as heart rate, digestion, and breathing. It has two branches: the sympathetic branch, which activates the body's "fight or flight" response, and the parasympathetic branch, which promotes relaxation and rest. Overall, the autonomic nervous system helps to maintain homeostasis and regulate vital bodily processes.
Because you would die if you did not. Breathing is an autonomic function of the body. It does not require constant attention.
