Those are institutions, not a statement of education.
For example, Smale, a descriptively poor student educated in mathematics, didn't work as a janitor in any of the three institutes you mentioned and yet still scored a Wolf Prize, a Fields Medal, and other gongs most of us don't have.
The point flew over your head and landed gracefully
In your mind, sure.
You likely didn't notice the merging of threads and how your comment was out of context under the common title.
One flew over the cuckoo nest.
