I'm not quite sure why I collected the downvotes, but you're spot on. For example, I'm short and relatively uncoordinated. I have a few chronic physical problems in addition to this that make me "unredeemably incompetent" at the sport of basketball. I could work my ass off for the rest of my life and still never come within shouting distance of Michael Jordan. I simply cannot perform at an NBA level no matter what I do. If there were a shortage of talented basketball players, it wouldn't matter how many copies of myself you were able to get into basketball training programs, you'd never get an MJ. We need a better system to find MJ's of STEM and allow their talent to work for us.
