Captchas are dismissive towards users.

You throw humans and robots in the same basket and tell all of them to solve a puzzle or you won't talk to them.

I understand your point, but do you have a better suggestion to solve the spam problem? It's a really hard problem, and CAPTCHAs do a reasonable job of solving it at low cost to the end user.
