  Fallacious argument I think. I use a timer on my jog; a robot is measuring me! Should be a human coach? Dog food is for dogs; dogs should be manufacturing it? Silly. Emotionally based, and valid for that aspect. But not a good logical argument.

    Perhaps not logical, but of great emotional importance. Having kids know no one will read what they have to say is in effect telling them what they do isn't important, isn't worth the time to read... I remember a few times when I had interesting exchanges with my teachers based on my writing, and this was certainly motivating to me. It's like when a 3 year old draws something for you: it's objectively terrible, but you appreciate the effort, and want to encourage more of the same. What would a machine think of it?

    You jog for your own benefit, not for other people, so you can measure your jogging however you like. Dog food, however, is for the benefit of dogs. At some point in the manufacturing process a dog has to taste the food, because they are supposed to eat it . Or at least a human has to make sure it smells nice, because they are supposed to buy it. Same with essays. They are for humans to read, so humans have to test them.
