Well said, 777AV8R:
Your experience matches completely my own one with all the specs for and of electronic supervising/monitoring systems for complex technical systems. These systems are good to analyse the behaviour of systems under specific operational conditions (and to calculate the results "ahead").
But to prevent the above mentioned complex systems from reaching destructive forces there are needed systems like those who are working behind "fly by wire"-systems, programmed with the limits calculated in advance.
