Bruce's point was that it takes 6 months steady practice with a camera to be able react and fix a focusing problem in an AF camera without having to think about it. that fixing time is the same reaction time it takes for a trained pilot to see that one of the instrument lights isn't green that should be and know what's wrong. reading an unfamiliar camera's manual for 5 minutes and dismissing its AF as useless only means you have already made up your mind and reason has nothing to do with it.
