I think you're missing the point. Replaceability being a standard for judging people is inhumane and encourages people to be treated inhumanely. In the real world we see this in the treatment of poor workers in actual real life capitalist countries, or in actual real life sweat shops, or in actual real life women who are treated like sluts in a world where women not having sex is valued.
The market viability of the concept kind of is beside the point. How the concept makes life for these people god awful **** is the point. If you thought anything about morality in how society treats people then maybe this would be obvious.
