This is an interesting idea, and one I'll try to keep in mind with
frustrating people.

That being said, some people are truly not that bright, through no
fault of their own. A friend of mine teaches junior high school. One
of her students worked harder than anyone else, got after-school help,
etc., but just couldn't get it.

IIRC she didn't qualify for special assistance because "She didn't
have a learning disability, just an extremely low IQ."

And people wonder why teachers get so frustrated that they quit.
