Do you understand how dumb computers can be because of our input?
I struck out because I bent my knees on that one pitch or slumped my shoulders.
Strike zone is a living breathing thing with variables called human beings.
Not just dimensions of a plate and height ratio.
I wouldn't trust we could ever design a program that accurately depicts real life but only a program like Cyclops that yes the ball crossed over the plate at a certain height regardless of all the variables of the player on that pitch.

You don't think there is a computer system that can scan the player in real time and determine where the ball was in relation to the player's body at the time that the ball crosses the plate?

We can design programs that take equipment and people to exact points outer space, but this fricking guy doesn't think we can design a ball/strike program for baseball. Get real.
