Well said. The death of trust in software is a well worn path from the money that funds and founds it to the design and engineering that builds it - at least the 2 guys-in-a-garage startup work I was involved in for decades. HITL is key. Even with a human in the loop, you wind up at Therac 25. That's exactly where hybrid closed loop insulin pumps are right now. Autonomy and insulin don't mix well. If there weren't a moat of attorneys keeping the signal/noise ratio down, we'd already realize that at scale - like the PR team at 3 letter technical universities designed to protect parents from the exploding pressure inside the halls there.
