I think the issue is more about teaching styles rather than learning styles. Teachers often only know one way to teach things and can't adapt at all to level differences. They often enjoy working MOST with the kids who ALREADY know everything due to tutors or parents. So the kernel of truth is that different approaches are needed for different individuals but it jumped too quickly into specific archetypes. Another kernel of truth is that everyone has the same potential but the majority flow often dienfranchises individuals who can't take advantage of the mainstream winds.
