If we take the Abramsverse as a rough approximation of what actually happened with Spock at the Vulcan Science Academy, it also makes Sarek's choice all the more ridiculous and tragic as the reason Spock didn't go was because he was offended at the very racism which Sarek made a backdoor deal to avoid.
It's interesting, really, as it really does give us a 3 dimensional view of how institutionalized prejudice is something that can resonate through multiple lives and how people respond differently for it.
Sarek did the best he could by his "kids" but Spock didn't want their condescension.
It almost makes me want to see Sybok just for a Vulcan who finds the whole place worthless.
