Well, when you quantify your opinion like that, there's not much of an opinion left to even debate. "Different people get an education for different reasons" is a nice statement, and I would even agree that it's true. But nothing follows from that. It's not a statement that one can draw conclusions from. In your original statement you're saying "MBAs are useless now, but it's because of HR, and it sucks that MBAs are useless but it didn't always use to be like that". Now you're saying "no, they aren't useless, in fact they're better than engineers". Oh, how easy it is to claim a strong point when you're unconstrained by the truth.
