Very succinct, very logical analysis of the root cause.
Matter of fact, the problem is greatly similar to automation in broadcast radio. When unattended, the system chirps merrily away sequencing music, ads, PSAs and other announcements untouched by human hands.
But when I (as a volunteer engineer/producer) take over manually, the computer is put on HOLD, and manual ops are just the same (almost) as during my student days 50 years ago. And executing a fast-paced audio sequence is not so emotionally different from landing in a crosswind. In a taildragger.
