No professional company that knows two things about its business would
rely on automated scripts to do regression.

Regression testing and QA is done by individuals. Low-income
individuals in Romania or India, maybe, but individuals nonetheless.
The scripts they execute are delivered by the PM/PA covering the
changes.

Please don't make up arguments as you go just to suit your point of
view of the day.
