To be fair, as soon as you start messing with swing, it's no longer strictly a "grid" you're limited to. Timing and breaking the rules is where musical talent starts dancing with grids and boxes.

Ableton even recommend thinking beyond machine-perfect rhythm. https://www.ableton.com/en/blog/get-swing-drum-programming-t...

I find it funny the term "humanizing" is used in regards to adding swing. I guess no worse than a term like "moderate rock".
