Most interesting is this whole ongoing education dilemma.

Beyond basics like reading, etc. It seems the more rigid any curriculum the fewer people benefit from studying rather than focusing on identifying an individual's interests and enthusiasm. This result guarantees education by the numbers where the reporting is always, that everyone has achieved some 50th percentile of acceptable knowledge. Now go out into the world and continue to help us all fail.

Yeah, this is anti-norm educational thinking but I think strictly directed education removes chances for individuals to excel. Many maybe most say no way to this but I guess it's a matter of system focus.
