Secondary anomalies

A problem (of interfaces):

Even simple interfaces can generate secondary anomalies. A complex (not K.I.S.S.) interface could always be "deciphered" when you need most?

The responsibility of the interface is huge: V/v FO (PF) of ANA 738 rolling with the Captain locked behind cockpit door.

Or should be simply considered crew error? Automatism (the crew interacts through the interface) can be dangerous. And can act "ahead" of the crew.

Is it possible to stay ahead of the "automated interfaces". Silent THS move, non observable (directly) SS, System reconfig (due sensor and System lack of redundancy) allow you to be ahead of the plane? And to enter the correction loop with a clear and fast understanding to execute your pilot capabilities? (aviate, etc.)

I see a conflict here.That played a role in a big number of incidents and some high profile accidents.

IMO training is not the only solution.
