Switzerland and England both have schools in the top 10.

Those schools don't admit everyone, and certainly not everyone for free.

I can't speak for Switzerland but all universities in England charge the same for UK students with nothing upfront. Sure they don't have space for everybody who meets the minimum but that's inevitable. There are no legacy admissions, athletic admissions, positive discrimination etc. Everybody goes through the same process.

That's fine, I was just disputing that "no one holds a candle to the US education system".
