Fair enough, I will just have to think harder.

Not sure I agree with that.
I fail to see how automation can fail to cause a dependency.
Humans require constant practise to be good at anything.
If we expect humans to be able to fly a limited panel raw data non precision approach in a limiting crosswind when the toys fail, then we have to make them practise the same.
The only way I see that humans skills don't fade yet are assisted by computers is if we fly it
all ourselves all/most of the time yet have HAL in the background
monitoring us and reminding us when we screw up.
That way we are maintaining both skills and capacity.
If Federer didn't hit a ball more than once a week or play a match more than once every six months then he would lose to No 100 on the ladies tour.
Humans require constant practise.
