The perhaps hidden point was that it is ludicrous that the best value of a degree is it lands you an interview/job, and not that it gives you as much skill otherwise.

Forgive me, but I'm struggling to keep your argument straight. Your post goes back and forth.
For example, there's a subtle difference between these two stances...
your title: "A dirty secret: Most people probably shouldn’t go to school"
your conclusion: "So here’s a dirty secret of our times: you MAY just be better off not going to school."
If you're arguing that education could be faster and cheaper, I don't think that comes out in your post due to other distracting claims and anecdotes.
