There is value to knowing the quality of your work apart from knowing ways to improve it.
For example, "Should I personally cook something for this upcoming potluck, or should I let my spouse do it?"
The problem is that knowing how well you cook doesn't really affect who should cook past a certain basic point of competence, as far as I can tell.
