That’s literally what people do to get a PhD, they defend their thesis by answering a bunch of questions from professors about it. That’s the point of a PhD.
It has nothing to do with “street smarts” unless the degree is from the “School of Hard Knocks”.

Sorry maybe not phds specifically, but masters and bachelors maybe? Lots of certificates and qualifications require just written tests, no practical testing.

Ok, but you specifically said “PhD”. Your comment sounds like you just don’t know what a doctorate is.

And I made a mistake, it happens. Very few qualifications require practical testing, if you want to circle a discussion on the one I made a mistake on in choosing that’s on you.
