If you think this is bs, you either have a magical brain to be envied or you've just never actually taken on this work.

Was there more grandparent involvement in the past maybe?

Of course. It shouldn't be the sole criterion for selecting students. But if it does reflect your academic potential, then I don't see why it can't be one of the criteria for a subset of students. Everyone has different ways of expressing their abilities and different limitations. There's no known single metric that can accurately capture that for everyone.

I recall installers always asking you where you want to install things. Sometimes, that's hidden behind "custom install" or something like that. Is that not the case anymore?

Just my personal experience, but I've found that the ability to work hard and push through doing things you don't want to do is very much transferable between sports and academics.

Yes, that one. The difference between all the candidates falls in a range of about 3 percentage points, meaning that everyone has near majority support.

Did you read the article? It says everyone polls approximately the same as Biden.

Or, make it fade more and more for each "unique" visitor. Make sure it hits after they start their marketing campaign.

I think this should apply in general, not just in this thread. Down votes are reserved for comments that do not positively contribute to the conversation.

I've always interpreted "why don't we just X?" as a shorter way of expressing "I think I would like X. Is this a good idea? If not, why? If yes, what are the barriers to making it happen?"

The "what would you do" type of questions where everyone shares their subjective opinions is exactly the type of question asklemmy is for. Nostupidquestions is for questions seeking objective answers.
