I think that's exactly the point that I'm trying to make. Most of the population ends up spending a much larger time of their life investing in skills and knowledge. So the total amount of knowledge in society would end up being far larger.

That would be true for the wrong type of knowledge also -- politics, manipulation, power accumulation and so on. If you think the 0.5% are bad enough now, wait until they can live to 500.
