I have to say the opposite is true.
Fair enough, I'll bite.
So how exactly is the airbus like any other airplane? From high speed protection to low speed stability, thrust lock to toga lock, side stick priority to the instinctive disconnects. Is it the last 30' where the a/c pitches over to force you to flare or multiple failures of redundant systems that change laws. More specifically the change in law when you put the gear down. Rate vs proportional input. Tell me how thats like any other airplane. In some cases you are not in control even with the autopilot off, think protection.
I agree it's not rocket science but to say its just like any other airplane is quite a stretch. I guess we can agree on one thing. When the world is in order the airbus will violate you quickly if your not paying attention to your FMA's.
