I don't even know how to argue with that...can't do anything against bad faith I guess

  Huh? Where's the bad faith? What I mean is, you can study something even if you know that you won't understand it at the end of your studies. There's even stuff that you can have a full career in and still not understand completely, like Quantum Mechanics. It's not a guarantee that by studying something you'll understand it, but learning more about it can be valuable in itself. For example I can study some X technique in a language, e.g Monads, and know when to apply it and what it does, and be quite productive with it, even if I don't yet understand it (or never get to understanding type theory).
