Why is it WRONG for web-site creation tools to use HUMAN English?

Why is it so "WRONG" for web-site creation tools to list set up directions using basic, HUMAN, English?  What is wrong with on-line communications being the same as face-to-face communications?   Why is this a "crime"????

    Because computers cannot handle the ambiguities of human English.

    It's not "wrong" and it's not a "crime". Just because something isn't commonly done, doesn't mean it's wrong or criminal.
