On that, we are in complete agreement :-). There have been similar
threads on the pprune website about pilot training and deskilling
the process of flying aeroplanes. Problem there is a bit more serious
though as when the automatics give up, the crew don't have a clue
in some cases how to fly manually and prevent the thing falling out
of the sky. Have a detailed look at the AF447 incident for a classic
example...
