The problem is security. How do you prevent that such a system is unhackable and can't be misused remotely? That's the number one concern in all of these industries these days.

The same way you protect all other flight-essential electronics? You air-gap it.

This, this is why we can't have nice things. I understand the hacking concerns, but really, it seems that we've constructed arbitrary and next-to-impossible problem-space boundaries that appear to only stifle change and solutions to big problems.
