You're right that some students find success, but the fact that a few thrive doesn't address the systemic barriers that prevent millions from accessing the same opportunities. The system isn't failing everyone, but it's failing enough to justify serious reform.

The system isn't failing everyone, but the claim that it's failing "enough" to need restructuring is a value judgment, not a measurable fact.

The system isn't failing everyone, but the idea that it's failing "enough" to need a complete overhaul is a leap that ignores the many students who are well-served by it.

The system isn't failing everyone, but the fact that millions are falling through the cracks—especially in underfunded areas—means the current structure isn't meeting basic equity or quality standards.

The fact that millions are falling through the cracks is concerning, but without clear metrics on what "success" looks like across all students, it's hard to say the system is failing in a way that demands total restructuring.
