This might work well for knowledge/IC-based attainment. There are still other groups, who are possibly the majority when combined:

Some people are there for "the experience", no matter how much it costs, nor how little benefit it results in. They will still be paying $80k for an experience that qualifies them for nothing, even though they had that qualification already before they started.

Some other people are there for the network, and/or will learn leadership skills in that environment. They can't build/learn those things in an online environment.

Agreed. One size does not fit all. It's just the hope that options like Khan Academy are made truly viable for those who are well served by such options.
