I didn't downvote you, but it seems like a pretty nitpicky question to ask at the "we demonstrated that the thing worked and didn't melt" stage.

On contrair el capitan: It is trained on human designs and design processes. It has knowledge on physics and flow mechanics + propulsion simulations baked into it. It should outcompete a human, who gains that intuition by try and terror.
