True - the problem is it is usually reported that Cirrus pilots spend all their time pushing the auto pilot buttons rather than holding onto anything. It just goes pear shaped when either they forget which buttons to push or for whatever reason the autopilot cant fly the aircraft any more .

It reminds me of the very old one about why the pilot keeps his dog, cat, parrot and ostrich in the cockpit with him.
