If someone can't belay properly using an ATC then it is a good idea for them to learn. I went climbing with a friend from uni once who had been "climbing for 2 years", when we got to the crag and racked up I passed her a ATC and she asked how to use it. If a person deosn't have the mental capacity to master the use of an atc then it is likely that there would be other safety concerns with them belaying. My vote is not ban auto lockers, but make people demonstrate a competancy with an atc first. Good belaying technique probably stop most of the incidents assocaited with a auto lockers.
