Honestly: where in the job market is such knowledge or are such skills actually appreciated?
My life experience says that at least in academic teaching these skills are more appreciated than nearly anywhere else in industry, but if you know better, I'm interested to get to know your perspective.

There's only a few places where academic teaching is well compensated and even in those places it doesn't compare to the private sector. Oh and there's an enormous but not very visible industry of having university professors on boards of companies as advisors to make sure there's a very easy transition for them to move to private industry.

There are of course a lot of jobs that pay a lot better than some low teaching position in academia, but in these, a great knowledge nearly always gets you a lot of hate and resistance. Nearly all of these jobs are rather about "shut down your brain, keep your mouth shut, and take the money".
