Nicely put. I'm convinced that you could make, say, an educational chemistry game where the point was to actually solve problems with chemistry. A bit like SpaceChem plot-wise, but with nucleophilic substitution and balancing redox reactions instead of computer programming-esque puzzles. You could basically take homework problems, dress them up with fancy interactive, informative graphics, and stick them in a "tycoon" game where you're manufacturing and selling chemicals. With some side work analyzing environmental pollutants, cleaning up accidents, reverse-engineering your competitors' products with spectroscopy, that sort of thing. I'd play that.
