Although the film cameras and audio both have time codes captured now, they aren't a single file. Likely not even captured to the same storage. A lot of intake workflow that can probably be and already is automated in a traditional way, though.
Doesn't even need time code. FCP lines up the files by matching the audio, mostly, IIRC. Also AFAIK, digital cinematography is pretty much the norm at this point, so film likely doesn't factor in most of the time.
