Thanks. I meant that holding a degree does not guarantee that you are smart.

  Yeah it’s a virtue signal that one has written some language that doesn’t focus on first person anecdote. It’s a sign someone is a hard drive of prior knowledge. We leaned on spoken tradition education to pass down knowledge as written literacy, paper, writing tools were hard to come by until the last century. It was never about the student but the future. Still the same today; one student isn’t propping up reality. People think learning a linguistic style means discovery of net new knowledge.
