Then it’s quite ironic that having a Harvard degree confers more prestige, no? And you are rather splitting hairs about a half percent difference, which has a myriad assortant of factors related to it. I’m not staying Stanford is synonymous with a state school. But EVERYONE knows Harvard’s position. Especially among laymen, a connection to it makes you one of “annoited,” your mere connection to the university is regarded as impressive. The same degrees can’t be said about Stanford
