I read the article before commenting, as is my habit. A disagreement is not always a failure to process.
To be very explicit, my problem is that the article argues that simulation will be a suitable substitute in the software space, as it is in the aviation space. I see no evidence for that; it's pure hypothesis taken as fact.
I would say that Bainbridge supports my position, if anything. Take a look at section 2.3 of her paper, where she lists all the reasons why simulation can be unsuitable in preparing for complex incidents: https://davidjusth.com/s/Ironies-of-Automation_Bainbridge_19...
Thats an interesting subsection, and I wouldn't say it agrees fully with either position. It both acknowledges the option of using simulations, and the weaknesses inherent in it being unable to simulate unknown unknowns.
