Say there are 10 assignments graded 0-10 with 5 points for the attempt and the potential for an additional 5 points. Now, the minimum points required for an A is 50. This means you simply nerd to do the assignment. The "grading" is giving numerical feedback on the quality of work relative to the expectation of where students should be.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying I don't care about grades, and care more about the learning. The P/F (0/100) scale has absolutely no worry on a grade. Just do it, and get 100. This can (and will), obviously, be abused by some students. But those who care, won't abuse. Again, I'm not saying you're wrong.
