Imagine a vast school, with all the kids intermingling, and one shouts up and says "My God I understand algebra!". This is a signal for the kids who are struggling with algebra to head in their direction and ask questions or copy the homework answers. Its also a good signal for kids who are working on groking calculus that he is not to be listened to.
To avoid this in schools we sit kids in age-related classes, of small size. But the world is a big school and there is no central authority who knows what we should learn and when.
We just need better filters to block out the noise of algebra-learning kids while we work on infinite series. Those filters might be news-style forums, at least until there are too many kids at different stages on here. Then we have to work on our own filters.
And listen for the kid who shouts "My god, I built a filter to ignore calculus learning kids!"
Edit: OK, Ok there is a difference between link-bait headlines and pre-known content. But the kid has to shout something.
