There’s no question that by your (correct) argument, most of the top schools are insanely grade deflated, with MIT and Penn winning special deflation awards. The Ivies’ reputation for grade inflation in cross-section* was never correct in the first place.

*Cross-section, meaning compared to other schools. “Time series” would be compared to itself ten years ago.
