Right. I'm not saying that it's 100% legacies and AA. There are plenty of high IQ people there.
The problem is that easy to get out of is a hugely significant red flag. These are high IQ people, sure...who approach real world intellectual challenges like high school students.
Employers and grad schools use undergrad admissions as an absolute indicator of a person's worth, and they really shouldn't. Every class that is for the Glory of Social Justice is a class that isn't pursuing truth wherever it leads. They're churning out high IQ people who think they're smarter than they are, and are used to subverting and manipulating systems to get their way. They're steeped in pilpul, and it has a drastic effect on the way they view the world.
It's time to stop pretending that they're meaningfully anything other than religious institutions, the SJW equivalent of an oncologist that wants to treat your melanoma with prayer and speaking in tongues.
