That is a good point, but it's also true that you don't know what you don't know. I've learned a lot about things I never thought I would be interested in by searching for terms and maths that I saw in papers and didn't understand. It's not like I've become an expert in anything new, but it gets me thinking about all kinds of interesting things. It makes me want to go back to school, and reinforces the idea that I could create more if I did. So I know that not everyone sees it this way, but I think that gating the means to easily access that sort of aspirational hope and inspiration is reprehensible.
