I suppose the only way my questions will be answered is if I quote some old dead dudes. So here goes.
Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. -Kurt Vonnegut
Do the Philosophe Knights resent the ignorant of Malton because their higher educations they worked for don't necessarily allow them to lead better lives here?
Here's a piece of advice for you:
Wear your learning like your watch, in a private pocket, and do not pull it out and strike it merely to show that you have one. If you are asked what time it is, tell it, but do not proclaim it hourly and unasked, like the watchman. -Earl of Chesterfield
