I think you are fully right here, and the future of education should bring together necessary tools (people, inventions, directives, methods, etc.) in order to lead to more breakthroughs in the world.
Rohit, are genius clusters a lá Hungary an indicator of something going on at a level we are innately blind to? Kind of like occupying a part of a de Sitter manifold we don't have access to? You obviously are a genius of the lateral connectivity type. Congratulations, though your burden may be the innate profundity you see in everything. The multiple right answers. The ideas coming faster than you have time to write them down....
