I believe the original point of Buffalo sentences is to dramatically 
demonstrate the importance of morphology.  We can go only so far in 
parsing such a sentence; however, if we had robust inflectional 
morphology, we could go further.  Even the capitalization helps I 
always use buffalo sentences in my introductory linguistics classes as 
well as my  grammar classes.  Students love them and have a ball while 
learning.
