So... what the academics did wasnt very helpful, but at least they didn't do much of it?

  Those ones teached. Wether is was helpful or not depend on how good was the teaching and how useful is the knowledge. Not everybody in a teaching institution should be required to push humanity's knowledge forward. But then you get the problem of selecting those people without easily measured objective indicators. That's why it worked reasonably well when those were slightly low paying jobs restricted to a caste.
