A prime example of work that you can't measure with numbers: the value of teaching isn't a scalar. Pretty much like measuring a programmer's output by lines written. However, if we think we can't afford to have a decent funding for schools then nobody has apparently been heard speaking up about not affording to not have that funding. If we keep merely chasing test scores for a couple of decades, what kind of an education will we have at that point?
