The "not teaching us what we needed to know" was only two classes
The reason you hear about this disproportionately is that it's a big problem, it forced me to change my entire career plans and was mildly traumatic, and is something I would want to reform. You don't hear about all the times I solved math problems incrementally because 1) that was fun! that's why I have a degree in math! and 2) it is pedagogically correct, as you note, so I see no problem there.
