The incorrect user input on AF447 happened AFTER all of the automatic systems had failed due to sensor clogging. How could ignoring user input have helped the flight when the plane's computer giving up was the cause of the manual takeover in the first place?

Yes, I guess that's where I say I don't know of a fool proof system, and then yeah how would it know it was incorrect input. I was simply saying incorrect input, given the actual situation, was an issue.
