No, it's a point of reference. If he puts no great value on an engineering degree and he is a high school drop-out, that's far different from a Life Sciences grad that has a similar viewpoint. That's not arrogance, that's trying to understand his perspective so that a proper argument can be tailored to crush his 'hypothesis' with appropriate facts.
When we denigrate his inferior credentials then we prove his point.
