So education is useless?

Humans learn in the side effect of education, nobody is busting out some poor method that schools teach to solve antiquated problems in the real world.

No, more like the average can be more important than some outlier's impact, at least for steady progress. So while you do need the Mozart and Einstein, a more productive effort would be to raise the general population's education level.
