Can we talk about why every bakery class teaches you to sift flour?

I took a class last month at the local community college and the instructor insisted on sifting flour for every single recipe. Three years of baking at home without a sifter and my cakes turn out fine. Has anyone else stopped sifting and seen no difference in their results?

Wait you actually paid money for a baking class?

Wait, you actually dropped cash just to learn how to bake bread, @richardfox? I thought everyone just watched YouTube and burned their first loaf like a normal person.
