This is true, but I think part of the problem is that GURPS makes self-study insufficiently inefficient compared to studying under a competent teacher, and also doesn't take into account the quality of the fixed facilities and the quality and quantity of the ressources consumed during training (an example of the later being huge amount of ammunition fired off during elite military training).

I don't yet know how inefficient I want self-study to be compared to studying under a teacher in a classroom situation (studying under a teacher being his sole pupil is obviously even more efficient), in Sagatafl, but it'll be much less than 50%.
