Closing summary from author Cathy: "Obviously they don't in all situations. For over a hundred years grades have represented or summarized a teacher's estimation of the worth of a student as quantified by a series of tests, often of the item-response variety (invented in 1914). Badges are simply another way, a more flexible way, of certifying a range of skills that our machine-age multiple choice mode of testing doesn't fully comprehend but that are crucial to the ways we live, work, and learn."
