No One Actually Wants an Equal Society

Not necessarily, mate. If we were to train sanitation workers the same way we train business managers, the courses would include microbiology, chemistry, relationship management and more. Why don't we? Surely, more knowledge of, for example, bacterial behaviour, genetics and the best methods of elimination & prevention of propagation would help reduce the evolution of 'super bugs'. I put it to you that it's only social convention that has ranked sanitation 'lower' than business management when in base terms, the former is far more important to our survival than the latter. Thinking about it, business management could be a module of a proper education in sanitation as it's entirely likely that an effective cleanliness model would include teamwork.

A holistic understanding of process value identifies the equality of all parts of the process.

The training described is unnecessary and simply accrues additional expenses whilst simultaneously putting the role beyond the abilities of those it currently employs.

There are situations where training people more intensely in areas of sanitation does save lives.

I can't remember the details of this statistic so it may sound pathetic but I'm sure I heard that when hospitals trained staff to wash their hands properly it cut down deaths a significant amount, I don't remember the details but it sounded legitimate and I was shocked about it at the time I heard it.

But they didn't need to teach them a broad spectrum of chemistry and microbiology, just enough to be able to wash thier hands absolutely correctly  and how to clean using various chemicals around the hospitals.

In a sense mechanics provide a service that could result in life or death but there's enough decent mechanics out there that if my mechanic starts asking for the same sum of money as a rocket scientist due to his training in rocket science, I can just go to a cheaper mechanic.
