Interesting read. Does this make any sense in the jazz world?.

I think this guy is a breath of fresh air. We as a society have had to
pander to every group to the point that we bribe everybody into
something or lower standards so they can "cut it." In this area band I
had a band director tell me they had to "buy band students by "helping
them get instruments", providing everything imaginable and dumbing
things down so the deadbeats can make the grade.
