What are the quanta of having some % of all societies members be some % more thoughtful people than they would have been had they never had to face ideas in school?
This assumes that "facing ideas" happens in school and not the real world, which is questionable on both sides.

It doesn't. By definition most people don't face things that most people don't face.
A few people learn a few things the hard way, and everyone else ignores their annoying crying.
It's not something that can be reduced to metrics except possibly on the scale of entire countries over timespans of multiple generations, and even then the effects are probably not seperable from countless other factors because there are no two or more otherwise identical countries to act as the controls.
