Fabrice has done some amazing things technically, but doesn't strike me as a successful businessman. His seemingly most brilliant work is being given away for free. The Zuckerberg, et. al. point comes from their vast wealth, not their technical chops, countering the idea that college is a requirement for financial success.
I don't think anyone would argue that college cannot expand the mind and enable brilliant people to do even more brilliant things. The argument, however, is whether that leads to increased income and access to jobs. The data, even outside of the popular anecdotes, seems to indicate generally not.
