I think that the failure of C.O.R.A. to lock Robber out shows a flaw in Colonial Military thinking. Cylons blast Vipers, they generally don't capture them. Since it takes a minimum of two Cylons to fly a Raider, it would be unlikely that a single Cylon could handle a Viper. Since Vipers work in groups, the idea that a non-Warrior might actually commandeer one was obviously never seriously considered. Thus, since Robber is Human, C.O.R.A. has no instructions on how to deal with his taking over. He knows about the Colonies, and speaks Colonial, so it is assumed he is a Warrior also. "Her" thinking reflects that of the Colonial Military, which as we see had a hole big enough to fly a BaseShip through.
