hmmm

by the Airbus telex and what seems to be consensus among those ppl defending the AB system, can I assume that the outcome might be similar to:

Cause of accident: PF failed to retard the #2 thrust lever.
The aircraft performed as designed.

Or in other words: human error is intolerable.

Sorry if this is not very positive posting, but I can't help thinking that's the way it's heading.

I still can't help my personal feeling that, even though the aircraft did perform as designed, it was the design that turned this human error into a disaster.
I've been flying the Airbus for nine years now and flown with a few T/R's inop, I wonder how many successful landings have been made throughout the years with T/R's inop?
