The issue is that Harvard students are or should be capable of mastering huge quantities of academic work at a far more abstract level than at less competitive admissions universities. Giving an A for mastery of an average amount of work vs mastery of the full potential of the course encourages laziness and doesn't help distinguish between motivated and merely good students
