Came here with that exact quote in my clipboard. I have a medical background prior to software, and one of the key learnings there is that wherever there is scope for a human to make a mistake, that mistake will (eventually) be made. It's therefore crucial that wherever possible the capability of making that mistake is eliminated. I see automated deployment as falling into a similar category of utility.
