Didn't Airbus family aircraft have a recent Airworthiness Directive release having to do with pitch control in certain circumstances? (The answer is yes). If you look at the longer view of the A320 and its successors, in terms of the concept of the control architecture, this is a mature system. That they are still "discovering" certain issues with it (albeit having to do with rarely encountered variables lining up) speaks to the complexity of the system and its software suite.
With the complexity of the system in mind, it speaks for a need for more training and education on the system, not less, for those who operate it. What is curious is that this seems to be counter-intuitive to the suit wearing sorts who design and who buy these systems to be put into place to deliver people from here to there for a fee.
Maybe it's a paradox: if one is to build an airplane that "a concierge can fly" you have to build a complicated plane, which means that this concierge actually needs to have more invested in him on an ongoing basis in training and education in order to operate this complex machine.
No Free Lunch?
Analogue: you need deeper training and education of flying a swept wing transport aircraft than you do a Piper Cub.
