There's lots of good science done in the commercial sector.

(There's lots of crowding out happening, of course, from the government subsidized science. But that can't be helped at the moment.)

Sure, but I'm dreaming of a whole parallel reformed "New-niversity" system that replaces outdated and wasteful practices with systems that are more productive.

It will probably have to be started by some civic minded billionaires. I don't think the established system can reform itself.
