Haha, do you mean this in absolute terms? Prodigal pioneers often come from outside the standardized training institution, and blow the rest of us away. A tarzan of the jungle would climb 50 of those 200-foot trees way faster than any marine trained in the army for 15+ years, and exploit all of their weaknesses before these embarrassed marines realize their own beer bellies and go back to their regular bars to drink beer all over again.
The system is just becoming a bit too prohibitive for these prodigal gifts of talent, by disregarding anybody who did not go through the training marches.
There are few absolutes in the world, but very few undertake the same level of study on their own accord.
The reason the world is disregarding those who did not go through the training marches is, as GStan notes, there are a lot of college grads they can hire cheap due to high unemployment for recent grads. So now people have to get a university degree and work their way up through crap jobs a lot of the time.
Business will take advantage of whatever angle they can play, and why hire a HS diploma secretary when you can get one with an English degree?
