Multiple choice?

> not interested so much in did you get the right answer as did you follow the right techniques

A student honestly attempting math problems, if it’s a well-designed problem, shouldn’t be able to get multiple answers right with wrong methods.

> For things like English where the question is, did you get the right points?

I’d say a professor should be grading English essays. But a TA can grade short answers, e.g. did you grasp the theme or understand an extratextual reference.
