Now, in the liberal worldview this makes sense. Since, as relativists, they don't accept the objectivity of these crusty scientific measurements. Moreover, as radical egalitarians, they don't accept, and, more importantly, want to do away with these classifications for another reason. Because classifications are inherently elitist. Meritocratic, but elitist nonetheless.
Meritocracies are elitest institutions, after all, though laudable ones.
This, I suppose, is the part with the scariest implications. Try to imagine a world without standards. It would be a very strange place. Applications and diplomas would be of no use, since the scores and grades on them wouldn't mean anything anyway. R sum s, too, would become largely irrelevant, because they're just more numbers and facts that, if the CEOs are right, don't have any real bearing on whether you're qualified for the job at hand.
