I agree. While I like to automate away things both for saving time and consistent results, we have a tendency to throw away good old thinking or the window. Have I covered everything? Did I check all the outputs? What am I missing? What step that I did last time have I missed this time?

Sometimes it feels like we're throwing out good old proper thinking and proper work in order to blame automation, that the results is a natural outcome of all the complexity or that we're pressed for time. Sometimes it's just a matter of taking responsibility and doing a good job.
