> I suspect most people in general aren't like that. They just sort of exist, not knowing what they even want to learn or try to avoid learning if at all possible.

There is a saying about this: You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.

So what if there are people like that? It is not like everyone must learn. If they don’t want to they don’t have to.

Well believe it or not, primary education is mandatory by law in most of the world. So they sorta have to and the system must be designed to cater to all, unfortunately.

Now we are just talking by each other. Previously you were talking about university students picking easy thesis topics. I reacted to that, and now you are talking about primary education.

These two are very different contexts.
