I agree, but it's an unfair test - it was designed to confuse the computer and not the human.

For a counter example - imagine that you make a toaster that looks exactly like a pistol, but it actually just toasts bread.

A human would think it's a pistol when looking at it (so would the machine in this case). There may be adversarial examples where the human classification is worse than the machine if you specifically try and make examples that are bad for the human visual system.
