Unexpected conditions is not to mean "the aircraft software design is stupid and will try to kill you".

Oh please. Go read about some of the rudder hard-over failures the 737 suffered over the years. A pilot should be able to fly out of these things. I think unfortunately the children of the magenta line are the ones truly trying to kill us.

Surely autopilot failure is a predictable fault regardless of the underlying cause?

There isn't one predictable manifestation of autopilot failure you can train over.
