The "13 years" of compulsory education are foundational, but cannot adequately address topics in any depth, at all. A student who has taken "13 years" of math might be able to solve for x and y in a system of equations and calculate compound interest. Two additional years would grant them an understanding of set theory, Bayesian statistics, or calculus. Nearly no ethics or civics is taught during the compulsory period. No philosophy, very little critical reasoning. What we could do with just a little bit there.
