  I feel like in the limited set of possibilities of a human in space operating bespoke space based equipment, they aren’t much different than a robot with a given set of programming and plausible alternatives to take given certain outcomes. A human in space is still going to do probably only a few different protocols even in an emergency situation, protocols that need to be remembered and rehearsed and carefully followed, while you are perhaps taking on multiple G’s and scared for your life with little time to think. Think of it this way, the only advantage a human might have in space over a human on earth with an xbox controller or a predefined program for a robot is to do something in the event of a communications failure. However, a communications failure in outer space for a human mission probably means the mission has critically failed in some way and the humans are probably doomed without a link to mission control.
