It's all depends on your point of view.
And the question is, "that has been the way for years now and how has that help out"?
We still have engineer who wish they could be lawyers and doctors. Graduates who regret ever taking the courses they did.

Logistic students who learn swimming in hotel swimming pools.

What's my point here??
My concern is not on the number of subjects but doesn't means I agree with you though.
My concern is about content and irrelevant subject content material. Hope you won't raise any other argument on this point.
