Given his complaints about all college education not being the classics he manages to be even worse than that. Implicitly anything of practical value is considered "vocational" even highly complex and important fields like medicine, chemistry, and physics. All while relying upon unproven but furious assertions that they are somehow peak intellectuals and leaders.
Given that the other fields actually advance instead of being a frozen canon that are artifacts of irrelevant aristocrats. Notably mathematics was in the liberal arts but once it became practical instead of a flex it was heavily de-emphasized.
It is the same folly that alienation from the wordly is inherent superiority An enduring terrible idea that we have Ancient Greeks to blame. If anybody doesn't belong among intellectual elite it is those arrogant and cargo-culting fools.
