> The irony is that PEs exist largely because of pension funds.

The irony goes way deeper than that.

A large part of PE clients are university endowment funds.

Harvard for instance has close to $60B in its endowment fund, 40% of which is invested in PE. At this point, Harvard is more an investment fund, with a university as side business.
