I think you are completely off the mark. In this accident it is not the inability of the crew to hand fly but noncompliance of SOP is the cause. Even the best pilot in the world would have landed in the sea had he continued to 20ft without sighting the runway. Off course he even messed up the GA because except saying go around he did very little else but from 20ft. it wouldn't have mattered, may be would have been worse because he might have crashed into the boundary wall.
