I see your point. At some point computers simply cannot help us anymore for certain tasks and can actually begin to be a detriment.
Software bugs notwithstanding, too much computer means less human piloting and less actual hand flying experience. It might lead to a lower bar of acceptance to be a pilot, or discourage the types of people who actually love flying (since it's mainly done by the computer). More software can mean more complacency, less attention and engagement, less feeling of authority (by being so conditioned to surrender to the computer) and less "feeling" for what is right and wrong in any situation ("the light is green, that means no issue with this thunderstorm, company policy says fly the route when the light is green") .
It's perfectly okay to let some jobs (or mechanical assemblies) be manual even when they could be made auto.
