Who CAN'T pass the test?  I doubt that.  Perhaps they just haven't 
studied for it hard enough or don't care too.

Uh,oh..Gee, I never build tuned circuits.  So why should I need to know 
about them in order to get an advanced class license?  Building stuff is 
archaic.  Gee, I just want to operate.  Please eliminate the circuit 
design questions from the advanced exam.  It's too difficult, I can't 
learn it and all I want to do is operate with my store bought radio.

Sounds like another very similar kind of argument.

73,
