It's all triggered samples too, right? I read somewhere that on any studio recording made after the mid 80's you're not hearing the real drum sound.
I totally agree that humanising is a million miles from a real human, but it's better than 100% computer. Also, it won't get pissed and try to shag the bass player's bird.

Depends on the person deciding. Usually it's just past what they do.
In one of my bands we use a couple of Alesis SR18s, which are great. I reckon the key to programming drums so that they don't sound too robotic, is dynamic variation. The important thing is to emphasise the beats of the bar. If your hi hat is playing eighths, the hi hat hits that are in between the beats should be slightly quieter than the hits that are on the beat. Similarly for double hits on a snare or bass drum. The hit on the beat should be a bit louder than the hit off the beat. Drum rolls on a snare should accentuate the beats, such that not all the hits are the same volume. And so on.
