The thing I’m trying to get at, is not so much “a test that is required in order to be able to get any job” (as the US high school diploma accidentally became), but rather, “a test which can identify the Very Serious People”.
I would expect that Dath Ilan doesn’t have a concept of Very Serious People. That seems to be a concept focused on status instead of getting things done.
Why would you expect it to have such a concept and what kind of decisions do you think would be made based on whether someone is part of Very Serious People?
