I'd mark him down for writing "11" in digits rather than "Eleven" in numbers, but hey.

As BoM correctly observed, degrees are, for most people, a signalling mechanism AND NOTHING ELSE. The things learnt frequently have nothing to do with what people work in. Remove the number of degrees, the levels goes down (to perhaps excellent A levels) and employers get the same people and students save themselves thousands of pounds.
You are right in that most be should find a better signalling mechanism, however for a lot of us (say Databases, or Engineering) uni did teach us some useful things (even if it was much slower than could be done outside)
