All of these are not arguments against UML. "You don't need" doesn't mean it
is of no use.

In case You forgot, UML is not a programming standard and it wasn't intended
to be reserved for programmers. Once again, intention of modeling is to
create a common understanding of a problem. If UML diagrams help to depict
anything, I do not see the problem. Please take into the consideration, that
Your statement is only true if You assume UML cannot be understood by non
programmers.
