Just a comment someone once made to me - the PhD is a medieval institution <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_Philosophy#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_Philosophy#History>. It's a lot like medieval medicine - it might do you good, but you're also lucky if it doesn't kill you.
