I see this over and over also in organizations I work in and even have to fight it in my own behavior.. If you run an end to end test automation and it fails and then you are afraid or otherwise hesitant of doing the process manually you are out of touch with the system and probably missing the forest for the trees when you work on subsystems. While I would like to have better end-to-end tests, I know that I will have to fight more problems of getting too far away from how the system works.
