That's like arguing all math is addition (it's just a bunch of sum signs), therefore all math is not actually graduate level. It's a straightforward generalization of something that all school kids learn.
Also, math achievement in America is horrible. 40% of students leave 12th grade at "Less than Basic". Only 2-3% leave 12th grade at "Advanced." Must not be very straightforward. (21% "Proficient", 35% "Basic" in 2019)
