Sorry bud there have been incidents caused by "dual input" errors and other events such as heavy landings ( requiring main gear changes ) that occurred on the AB that probably would not have on a conventional aircraft where the Captain could have simply assisted on the yoke as required.
Sure I accept that on a conventional Aircraft the two Pilots can mistakenly work against each other effecting a safe outcome.
Nothing is perfect but I sure know which system I prefer.
