I don't think you connected your arguments very well. Just because a human can do something doesn't mean that AI's are the best solution to the task. I'm not sure how your specific example plays to the general case.

Both AIs and Humans both attempt to ape some fundamental truism or formalism about logic to compile and decompile programs. To me, it's better off knowing what those formalisms are than aping them with intelligent behavior, though finding formalisms is hard so sometimes we make do.
