I agree,
Ppl with good grades have hard time accepting someone without them to be as good or even better than they are.
For them grades become like a company whose share they hold. And any one making an arument against their fallibility even in special situation makes them extremely self conscious!

They may be some people who are like this. But I know enough people with good grades, who are much more tolerant; and some even see their chase of high grades as a waste of time.
