Access to knowledge doesn’t mean you automatically acquire that knowledge.
Sadly access to knowledge strongly correlates with access to mindless entertainment that competes with the absorption of said knowledge.
If you grow up in a house in the woods with every math book known to man, but nothing else, you will eventually read them.
But if that house also has every comic book, porno mag, animal bloopers, etc, you’ll never pick one up.
