EVERY SINGLE student at Bronx High School of Science is at age 16 smarter than EVERY SINGLE Phd in English Literature from Harvard. Period.

This is highly dubious. So too, your later "concession" that the smartest Phd in English might be smarter than the dumbest student at BHSOS. To wit, there is at least one Phd in English (not from Harvard) with whom I'm familiar who would be considered a super-genius, certainly much smarter than the typical student at BHSOS, though possibly not as smart as the smartest student.
