alt Hacker NewsWhy wouldn't stem PhDs follow some bell curve of quality? I'm sure many PhDs that are leaving don't contribute but some of them do. I personally don't see a reason for it to be skewed for only PhDs which don't contribute to leave.

These things are not in conflict. It's possible that PhD quality has a regular distribution, and that most of them aren't contributing much.
