With these it does emphasis because these are not using pronoun-as-to-be.
A pronoun-as-to-be sentence has to have -'e', whether one want's to emphasis or
not.

But you're only talking about "all students". What if someone cames along and
believes they are no longer a student?
The original want's to say that everyone, no matter what they think they are,
is merely a student.
ghojwI'pu' chaH Hoch.
If one wants to emphasis inclusion:
ghojwI'pu' chaH Hoch. ghojwI'pu' maH je.
