A human can notice when new evidence becomes relevant. If something isn't already on a computer's checklist when it becomes relevant, the human has a better chance of deciding what to do. EDIT: I understand that there is research

#4 seems spurious. Just another example of "If everyone did it my way, then everyone would be doing it my way." What if people don't want to do it your way? What if people can actually remember to spell correctly? EDIT: *nix
