And now you are generalising. There are some intellectually challenged / uneducated jumpers who stuff up too. There is an old cliche: Gravity does not discimminate!. The amount of information in your head has an insignificant affect on your wing loading. So the educated ones probably fall at the same rate as the non-educated. And more than likely feel the same pain.
Being a "know it al", is a personality trait, not something you learn at University. I am what I am regardless of how much I learn. It is possible that I may be influenced by egocentric peers, but in the end it is up to me to act the way I act.

It's also simple pattern recognition to see that the uneducated ruffians are far less likely to think they know it all and take themselves out by being wrong.

I said 'a lot of', not all, so I am not sure that still is a generalisation.
I have no doubt that the laws of physics know and care nothing about someone's educational background.
Now we are into 'nature vs. nurture' regarding the know-it-all attitude?
I think highly intelligent people are by nature more prone to develop a know-it-all attitude.
To add to this higher education by nurture seems prone to develop this personality trait in some individuals.
I also think that by no means do all highly intelligent and highly educated people have a know-it-all attitude, but the ones that do are that much more likely to take up BASE than the ones that do not.
better?

Perhaps you should join the DSP - M Lister was the founder I think. Unless you are already a member.
Yeah, I've got multiple paperwork too. There are lots of us, including many of our all time greats (rip).
But the best thing is this:
on the edge it does not matter!!! We are all created equals, and that is how we are whilst undertaking the activity. Perhaps some of us are more equal than others???
