the old adage, comes to mind... those who can, do. those who cant teach... the holding of a degree is viewed as indication of intellectual discipline... such discipline is legally required in fields such as chemistry, and administration of a chemical production facility... in practical terms a PhD holder is vetted by other PhD holders and is expected to be one of the people that creates the leading edge from wetware between the ears...The masters work at the bleeding edge, and bachelors,, well lets say "ill take mine double double please and keep the change"...
