use of technology. I have personally known pilots who make fun of
"techno-pilots" -- although they are becoming fewer, as their numbers
dwindle over time.

I've never understood this. I also set out to make N55ZC as well-equipped,
with lots of whiz-bang techno-wizardry, as I could get. Yes, I understand
full well that it all comes down to flying the airplane as safely as I can.
The gadgetry helps me do that. It won't take the place of sound judgment, or
good piloting skills, but I'm not expecting it to.
