At a mile, a sea-skimming missile is roughly four seconds away. In four seconds a person can say one short sentence.

So there is no decision being made in that window. The decision was made hours earlier, when the system was set to engage automatically — by a commanding officer weighing the risk of a machine getting it wrong against the certainty that a human would be too slow.

That is the part worth sitting with. The most consequential choice was not made under pressure. It was made calmly, in advance, and then delegated to software. The crew's job in those four seconds was to have already done everything correctly. Full video linked.
