For example for those who are able to learn all day, its a success, but for those who cannot it has failed and has no other alternative for them
If you want to define success as learning a whole day, then of course for those who can’t do that, the system fails them.
However, under any normal definition of success, which includes klei kodesh who aren’t learning a whole day, and ehliche balabatim who are shomrei Torah umitzvos and koveia itim, saying that the system has failed is demonstrably false.
