I thought it was mainly an exercise to see if you cared enough to look up the standard acceptable answers to the standard questions. Anyway it mostly selects people who are fine to have the tools. Some small proportion show up as not really suitable on a time scale of three months; and some others do go a bit strange after a longer period in the front line. I doubt these cases are the sort of things RfA as filter can catch, though - too formalistic and not based on "interview" techniques.
