Hmm. Okay yeah I could see that. In particular, school (esp. American elementary—high school) doesn’t really train “maintaining a schedule in a complex, adaptable environment where you are responsible for making your own plans.” (College sort of does, but still not much)
Whereas I had to learn to be interpersonally dependable by interacting with humans in a looser network of friends and professional colleagues after college.
[Edit: I read the OP as talking about dependability as… I dunno 67% professional/long-term-project sense, 33% social, where the sort-of-school that you can’t just coast through actually helps]
