This is a solution looking for a problem - exactly the same logic is applied during an autoland, if you don’t like it press the big red button? If you are holding the sidestick in the right way then it is exactly what it is named, instinctive.
I am sorry to not be specific here. Obviously, the "Priority Left" would trigger to let both pilots know that the Capt has given an input. So, long story short, there is no dual input, just one input, Capts intervention disconnects the other, and priority left ⬅️ triggers. The FO still has the option to press the TO pb, just to takeover or deactivate the system.
​​​​​Also, in the debrief, atleast there is clear distinction between who did what.
Inadvertent inputs below 50ft makes no sense. But to protect that a 2deg threshold similar for dual input can be set.
