That's great that PHDs are good at research, and engage in that.

But personally, I want to be taught by a professional teacher who specializes in teaching and isn't spending any of their valuable time doing research.

Researchers should research and teachers should teach.

It makes no sense to me that researchers, who do not enjoy teaching and would rather be researching, are forced to teach.
