How this type of "credential" fits into the wider university system is a topic in the recent A16Z podcast Crisis in Higher Ed & Why Universities Still Matter with Marc & Ben (https://a16z.simplecast.com/episodes/crisis-in-higher-ed-why...). The pod goes into much wider issues that may be of interest to comment readers. Note I'm still computing on Marc & Ben's views and not agreeing or disagreeing but rather acknowledge the relevance of part of their discussion to this topic.
