If I knew how to fly a plane and I was the pilot, I might feel safer.
That's the thing - people accept even very high levels of risk, when they have an illusion of control. Which is stupid, most of the time. And I'll bet the same people, who are afraid to fly, will scream bloody terror, when self-driving cars are introduced. Even though machines will be much better at driving and safer, than apes - some people will just not trust anyone and anything, other than themselves.
Yeah, but you don't understand.
When I learn to do something I become better than most at it.
Surely that's not an illusion. :-)
