Even if for the sake of argument we assume your assertion that "smart kids" benefit their classmates is correct... on what basis do you assert that those "smart kids" owe their classmates anything at all?

Why are their classmates entitled to an education at their expense, and what do the "smart kids" get in return?

This is like asking "what do I get out of not robbing the old lady in the park"... You don't get anything for not doing that, and you miss out on cashing in her pension cheque.

Robbing someone is a property crime, with a threat of violence.

It's completely irrelevant to this conversation.

I see, so we have an arbitrary law around an amoral action, so it's not relevant to the discussion of amoral actions?

I don't follow the logic.
