All the specialists need to be coordinated and joined by someone who can span multiple specialties.

This goes back to what we discussed a while ago! People like you will be more and more essential (I believe). Information specificity is going to isolate people to the point where they are actualy frightened of their own ignorance...

Those "useless" members of society may one day have the genetic sequences that ensure the survival of us. It is in our interest to keep the genome large as possible

Here is my question again: Are you unconsciously acting as the agent for, and doing the work of, Evolution? Or are you saying that this political agenda streams from the most educated community like yourself, with a conscious intent to keep the "genetic sequences that ensure the survival of us." alive in social policy? You know I don't say this to insult, Cosmic. But this first person explanation from evolution seems to be important. Do we consciously act in the interest of a separate force named "Evolution" (as your language implies), or is it simply a blind and unknown force, that we believe has a vague connection to our existence?
