Thing is you're completely missing the point. It is not about computers, it is about the knowledge, or lack thereof, of professional pilots, not eager aviation nerds.

I saw something like that unfold once as well, however the crew in the leading aircraft asked very specific questions about the location of the "loose panel" or open hatch, decided it was the outflow valve and departed without returning to the stand. The crew in the following aircraft learned that day that not all outflow valves are in the same position on every aircraft.
