I understand what you see wrong with my comment and hopefully can explain a bit better.
Basically the entire article is based on anecdotal evidence. I found that the root of each of their arguments really fell into a couple different areas. One being a misunderstanding on the long term impacts of Covid, the second being that the author is a bit behind the times (cost/use of textbooks was an easy example as it has been a major critique in college for over a decade), and the last calling out that the “average” student he interacts with may be getting pulled down by higher enrollment numbers.
For the most part my hope was to introduce some potential alternative interpretations to the things the author is seeing, that have some backing in statistics and research (although I know I did not provide them in my comment).
