For an article focused on the benefits of agency, the author sure seems to ignore agency on behalf of parents and people to decide how to make space for their kids. Modern education is no more a trap for the gifted than it is a vehicle to produce mediocrity. Greatness and mediocrity are products of what happens around school.

If the author preaches agency, stop pretending like you don’t have the agency to “just” be as the system asks.
