> the alerts go to Apple for human review

This should be read as "the alerts go to a barely-trained employee at a third party contractor like Cognizant[1] who has a quota of material to review every hour or they get fired and don't necessarily get points for accuracy for human review". I don't think Tim Cook is going to be double checking these images.
