logic

Why is so dificult for engineering to "teach" computers some simple logic, like if you have weigh on wheels, at least one TL on reverse and the pilot applying the brakes, the pilot wants to slow down?
Give the pilot spoilers, cancel the order coming from the TL not in reverse and "refuse" to give power to that engine.

I know it is hard for a computer understand why the pilot wants to stop if he continues whith one TL on climb.

On the other hand, it should be even harder for the computer understand why the pilot wants to go around with one engine engaged on reverse.

Maybe the computer could say: "Whow, this guy wants to fly with one engine on reverse. Since we are on the ground anyway, I will cut thrust on the other engine, deploy spoilers and apply full auto brakes. This guy can try this stunt another day, not with me supervising (or protecting) him...
