Even though I fully agree with everything you said, I also experienced the frustration of the ATS systems that look for all the keywords in your resume to match with the job offer... which forces you to make your resume look like exactly all the others in terms of list of keywords. Also, these systems can easily fail scanning your resume if it does not match with a standard style (for instance, I discovered at some point that a horizontal line used as delimiter made the whole ATS system fail to read the end of my resume).

Yet, many of your points are really relevant and could help one resume being spotted as interesting

Yeah, the automatic systems I've heard aren't great - which is why I also encourage folks to find ways to stand out and connect with the hiring manager as much as they can whenever possible.
