Algorithms are much more primitive than people by definition. You seem to have intended to convey the opposite, a preference for relying on primitives over complicated persons.

More primitive, in the sense of less complex, yes. But also more reliable. Algorithms do what they do, and never anything else.

Wrong choice of word, I agree with you.
