Your first response doubled down on your brevity. You posted a one liner and then another line which was a question "How is that not the case?"
Then when I answered your question and gave examples and discussion you accuse me of making it impossible to talk.
"Oversight" is a tad more involved than "A guy sitting at a big switch with a walkie talkie".
When you write "a big switch", you right from the get go are taking an extreme position: AI bad bad. If you have a more nuanced position, let the reader know right from the beginning. I didn't distort anything. You made an extreme statement advocating an illogical impractical course of action.
If you post an extreme one line post, people tend to take it literally because there is no further explanation, as if the writer thought an extreme position was clear enough.
Oh, and your counter point? It fails. The guy did NOT override it with an analogue system. He corrected it on his digital control panel, from what I gather and what would be an ordinary response, and almost certainly the ONLY response.
The days of analogue meters and valves to control complex infrastructure is long gone.
