Great post. In my field of software engineering, we frequently speak of process re-engineering. The phrase that I think is applicable here is that "automating a bad process simply means we are now doing something bad, much quicker." Sometimes in educational reformation, I believe this applies. We need to transform education by questioning all of the processes and assumptions behind those processes rather than just reform the old processes. That is what I believe.
