Yes I agree with this, if you are providing the expert system with premises, although not specific to a particular problem, then you are effectively programming it.

I wonder if we could discover and obtain premises through some automated system, then the deductive process could still apply, leaving us with an understanding of how the solution to a goal was reached via the deductive argument. Do you know if this has been attempted?

This seems to be relevant for premise selection https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.04442.pdf but not found anything yet on premise collection
