Not buying it.

- How many of the people saying "6,7" know (or believe when told) that it comes from a comment on someone's height ?

- How many of the people saying "6,7" think that it still applies to someone's height ?

- It comes from a comment on basketball, where 6'7" might indeed be a good height to be, but how many people extrapolate that to a comment on career progression, as the author does ?

- How many of the people saying "6,7" have even left school, let alone encountered a career progression they are unhappy with ?

TL;DR: Nonsense.
