On the surface, it sounds reasonable, indeed.

However, I followed the logical chain of thought of where that approach would lead. And I honestly don't want to live in a world where we reserve liberal arts and other non-STEM degree just for children of the wealthy, while the rest have to settle for "useful degrees". And I am saying that as someone who went to a college where almost everyone was doing STEM (which makes sense, given it was an engineering school).
