"With them, many people don't bother studying." Why? Because they are afraid of failing?

  Who knows? But I guess you know (or have heard) of some people who do not bother studying attending institutions that issue grades. (I do not want to claim that grades cause non-studying. Just that even with grades non-studying does occur--thus invalidating the grandfather-comment's argument.)

    "Who knows? But I guess you know (or have heard) of some people who do not bother studying attending institutions that issue grades." Some. But why cater to the minority? If the grade system wasn't working, we would see more problems in schools and universities. I also don't really know of a good alternative.
