Another point in this mix is with the shortage of experienced pilots becoming a bigger issue the manufacturers are selling the airlines "automation will save you". Take a look at the majority(not all) of accidents. Many are on the A320 series and B 737 series aircraft. The common thread: junior aircraft and first captain/f/o aircraft flown. The shortage is causing many airlines to push low experience pilots into these seats. The automation will save you about 98% of the time.
