Interesting. The example about resource allocation in education is instructive. The decision to allocate resources to G&T students at the expense of others is fundamentally a political decision. Those allocations can be influenced, changed, or even undone at that level. We could decide to allocate those particular finite resources to "lesser" students (see quotes) with a view to leveling-up. Let them all find their level later; but school isn't the place to put our thumbs on the scale. The best will always do better, without any emphasis.
