It doesn't require being in the top 10% of a top 10 school to be able to recognize bad ideas though. The standard you are describing is what I would call "qualified" or "competent" not "elite" or "top".
There are highly competent people in both the lower 90% of the top 10 schools as well as in non-top tier schools

And as for competence, there's an order or two difference between a developer that can add some more CRUD to a service and one that can say no to doing the exact same thing when it is a net negative to the system and/or organization. It's one of those things that sounds simple, but it takes a lot to even know which technical battles are the top priority.
