I agree with your statement. However, when it comes to grading craftsmanship, I know that no matter how much some kids will try they just don't have the physical capability to color (or shade, or construct) as neatly as other kids, so there has to be some leeway in that area. As for the concepts I teach, I have specific standards to be met.
