No doubt about that .. I got the AAIB monthly report today and it contained a cooker fire on a 777 and a child falling off the steps of a 737 fortunately without injury. Absolute leaps and bounds from what it used to be.

The only real flying report was about inputting the wrong taxiway (and getting the wrong runway length) into the electronic flight bag at Lisbon (twice !).

BUT …. my (not a professional pilot) view is that simple flying skills and situational awareness would avoid the automation gotchas as well.
