It is a good reminder of all the points you just made.
On a broader note, we are starting to see a fair few incidents where 'modern technology' plays a role. Ie this screen saver and many other cases of OPT input or output errors that wouldn't happen with a book, phone and tablet battery fires, JeppFD-Pro timing out while on approach and probably many more. I am pro change and pro technology but I think we have to be pretty careful we don't get too relaxed about this sort of stuff and realise there are now holes in the cheese that only programmers could foresee.
