Given how the post started, I disagree. But to answer your interpretation:

The ability to teach with lower ranks in a skill was implemented many years ago as a solution to training low levels of teaching. Many guilds required several ranks of teaching and as a 1st circle (or even just low circle) character finding someone you could teach was nearly impossible, forcing you to sit in Teaching classes.

It's not terribly effective, but it does make some real life sense, particularly if you assume teaching is a two day dialog (They say teaching is the best way to learn afterall).

It's also not really needed any more since Scholarship was combined - but then you get into the messy area of teaching becomes a way to feel out someone's ranks, and then everyone starts having ignore teaching on by default and so forth.
