I agree with everything you've said. Automation and tooling where it excels, humans where necessary and for oversight. My comment was largely around the fact that parent comment seemed to say "software bugs have been solved by tools, but design problems need humans". I think design/backdoor/crypto bugs may be more (or entirely) depending on manual audit, but it's dangerous to suggest software bugs can be fully automated away. Perhaps the parent comment was suggesting we should look to more software solutions to backdoor/design flaws? that's an interesting thought exercise.
