    No, I want specialized linguistic Ph.D people to also understand it, but I think boring teenagers with language that old is unnecessary and pointless.

      I have seen people use “unnecessary and pointless” for everything that you may study in high school from classics to calculus. I am thankful that I studied both.

        People who have IQs less.than 110 are probably wasting time by studying Calculus.

        Society uses a huge amount of time and resources to have people educated and it’s bizarre how little specialiization and how much boredom is involved.
