Why would I want both a less accurate book keeper and to incur all of the liability of doing the books myself?!

It's not less accurate. As commented above, the control knew they were being tested against the machine, so made sure to be super careful.
In everyday life the human is less careful, and the machine costs 1% of the human.
Presumably your current book keeper is not your slave, and you have to pay them...
...again: liability is the key issue. Cost savings a not exactly an isolated issue here.
Then why only have one human bookkeeper? Surely two would be better, since you can compare their results. But then, perhaps you should hire three, so you can figure out which one is right.

Got some bad news for you about that "liability" thing: it's always been on you. Read the fine print on your tax forms sometime.
Because it's way cheaper. Not saying it's a good tradeoff, but that appears to be their pitch.
