Giving the thing to the pilots in a dynamic state, with a know outcome of self-destruction is madness.
That's a self-defeating argument. The reason the avionics are handing the plane to the pilot is because they're unable to maintain that control by themselves. If they had enough ability to fly the plane, they wouldn't be handing it to the crew in the first place.
