When would a human outperform a scripting tool when testing for vulnerabilities? For example, would a human ever find something that SQLmap wouldn't? In what cases would it be preferable/are there any examples?

For example consider the url: 

```
"fakeurl.com/vuln.php?id=4"

```

A human could try:

```
"fakeurl.com/vuln.php?id='"

```

and see if an error message pops up, but in that time he could just run

```
sqlmap -u fakeurl.com/vuln.php?id=4 --batch --dump-all

```

and find everything so much faster.

I know a lot of people like to look down on script kiddies, but for practical, professional purposes it's best to just do things fast and properly. It seems to me that working by hand is less efficient and more prone to errors. Can someone give me a case (technical or a historic example) where a human found something a tool wouldn't have?
