The measure "I see it all the time" depends on both where you're looking, and whether you're paying attention.
1% of people have a PhD - but if you work at a university, you'll see people with a PhD all the time.

Yes, but that also means that a statement like "nobody gets a PhD" is absolutely untrue.
But 1% wrong is still better than “I see PhD everywhere”
Approximately nobody gets a PhD. It's like saying: men are taller than women.
