And it's still on paper, just now with some electronic augmentation that makes vote counting instant and lowers the error rate.

Do you not remember how problematic the purely paper voting systems were? How many errors were made in the voting and the counts and how long it took to get the final results in close elections? Florida 2000 is a famous, widely-known example. The computers are clearly better.

So, the people who can't get hole-punching and ballot layout right are going to "fix" things with two programming languages, three databases, and a dozen or so support libraries?

Also, Florida 2000 is a strange example, considering the present drama. We've only gone from a simple controversy to a more complex one.
