I would also like to know this. How many fatal crashes happened where autopilot was engaged in the 30 seconds prior to a fatal accident?

By definition, if the autopilot has disengaged it’s a more dangerous situation, so it is fair to place the blame on it. A relief pitcher doesn’t get charged with earned runs he inherits.
