but the analogy would be a riflemen trained to aim, and a person pressing button for guided missiles. How good you are at the original task is unlikely to matter when the new way supersedes the old way.
so how does being a good shooter make you a better guided missile shooter?
Over someone who never fired any real weapon? Probably. You are not startled by violent sounds. You have intuition for ballistics, time to target, CEP, weather effects.
