The whole concept behind the burst mode is the make the processs of
photography even more mindless than it already is taking more control away
from the photographer and putting it into the post processing people.
The art director can feel is if she's the one there taking the pictures in
the first place. As she's picking the precise part of the moose chew.

Had this been a shoot in which the photographer shot all day but turned in
some choice frames (as is usual) this would never have happened.

The photographer would have turned in one which they had not missed their
focus.
You let them pick them and they don't always know.
Don't always have time to find their loupe.

But this is not capturing the moment.
The moment is capturing YOU.

The Decisive Mastication!
