Thanks for picking out one little piece of my email, ignoring the context
and challenging that one little bit.

It's immensely useful. Particularly with the way you don't appear to be
able to refute the next part.

I once lost out on a job to a PhD. He was having difficulty getting
employed because noone wanted to employ a PhD. That company made the
sensible decision and employed him over me (I don't have a degree and at
the time had little real-world experience to speak of). Apparently other
people weren't quite so sensible...
