Very true. But at the same time, a not-insignificant portion of complaints lie in perceivedly automated deletion - if not by BCB (which is incapable of deleting anything, IIRC), then by trigger-happy admins.
Mmm. Perhaps a mention in the bot's note that deletion is (or should be) human-reviewed, and is not automatic.
I just put a note on the bot's talk page suggesting this.
BTW, the bot's templates now add: "Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page." So it's telling people what they need to do next.
