A perfect analogy given a spade and a for loop can definitely excavate a hill.

It takes longer, but a spade is better than bare hands. The goal is to speed up finding valid vulnerabilities, and be faster than humans can do it.

If you have an automated spade, that's still often better for excavating that hill than you using a shovel by hand.
