But is humility actually good? Or is it just virtue signalling? I think some people construed it as good in opposition to pride, especially excessive, and to arrogance. Probably neither is actually good especially in excess.
Ultimately what matters more is what one does, the actions, not the approach.
There is equality, equal treatment and equal opportunity. None exist in reality since were all different (including genetically) with different backgrounds, and exceptional people can sometimes force the environment to bend to their will.
Equal treatment is the most seductive of those, but in current implementations it just results in wasting potential - and is unnatural way of thinking. People have preferences. Resourceful people have resources to ensure better treatment. It happens all the time. Rich purple can get high level private treatment in terms of medicine. Or education. Or perhaps just housing.
That everyone theoretically can have it does not mean everybody does. And the places open to everyone suffer from the tragedy of the commons and lack of funding.
