Precisely. People are proposing complex algorithmic solutions to a problem where applying such things might potentially make things worse. Generally, civil aviation is remarkably safe, and we should not go with knee-jerk potentially counter-productive reactions. Airline pilots are a highly selective group of people, well trained, and they are showing every day how they work with integrity. That someone has once gone over and killed himself and others should not obscure our assessment of the situation. We have about 88 000 departures per day in the world. We don't accept even ppm-range risks of disaster if we know how to mitigate them, but when we're this low, we need to be careful that "improvements" don't actually degrade performance.
