One of many benefits of so-called education is in significantly reduced amount time wasted on clueless assumptions and ignorant guesswork. The list makes sense, especially HtDP => ProgLangs => FP + Types "road".
btw, there is a wonderful course based on HtDP2 on Coursera by Gregor Kiczales - the guy who wrote AMOP (yeah, almost no one know what is it.) This course is such a rare example of teaching thinking and doing transformation in your mind instead of coding and copypasting that I sometimes watching some lectures for a better night sleep.))
Another nice idea is to google who Matthias Felleisen is and why he is famous guy. Then, perhaps, one could be able to appreciate what academic guys could do.
