True, but you have 200 years of "Average" photo experience all rolled into get the best possible "Average" photo.
One nice thing about digital is that pictures are free! Not like the old film days where you paid for every exposure. Now, if you have the time, you can take 20 shots... varying the aperture and the speed and then picking the best image out for either printing or post-processing.
Camera doing the job for you is good for snapshots. But digital lets you do things 'in' the camera that were hardly cost-effective back in film days.

P.S. Here's a few from my road trips. Leica M8 digital with a variety of lenses. No post-processing or photoshop.
