Because anyone can effectively notice the sensory input around them. However, not everyone can effectively notice the complex patterns around them.

I tripped on a paving stone yesterday because I was too busy analysing patterns in my head.
Since most schooling is structured for audio-sequential learners, the multitasking/distraction of intuition inhibits memorization, and later, recall. So I'm guessing many intuitives feel kind of victimized for being born into a system molded for sensors.
I don't get this either. Maybe I'm not the best example of an S type, but I know INTJs, INFJs, ENFJs, ENTJs, ENTPs, and INTPs who succeeded way more academically than I did and who were way more involved in school life than I was. On the other hand, both of my ESTP besties struggled in school and my ISFP bestie had to take summer school basically every year. Some of my ESFJ besties also overextended themselves and spent too much time on social matters (which is also a reason why I don't buy the "school was built for extroverts" argument) and less time on their education while others went through rebellious phases.
I don't think the system was "built" for any type. I definitely understand feeling victimized by the education system, but I don't think it discriminates by type in particular.
Your friends' possible mistypings aside,
When learning, I sort of build a model in my head, beginning with the skeleton, and fill in the flesh in the order my mind wanders. So being randomly handed flesh (sorry about this analogy) is infinitely frustrating if I don't know where it fits in the whole.
lol
This just sounds like you're trying to gain a more wholesome understanding of how everything fits together. I struggle with this and I know a lot of people who also don't like being randomly handed flesh.
And in the end, especially as adults we eventually realize that dealing with life efficiently triumphs the ability to get lost in your head more.
Most people CAN notice sensory input around them if they choose to place importance in it.Because anyone can effectively notice the sensory input around them.
I think on the intelligence front, less intelligent people may not be able to tie together complex patterns or put things together - less intelligent intuitives, even. I still think though this too is a matter of preference --- sensors can 'effectively notice' complex patterns, it's just most of the time they may not find it relevant enough to devote great amounts of thought-space to. Again, it's a matter of priority and where that falls into a persons' sense of importance in how they look at life.However, not everyone can effectively notice the complex patterns around them.

Intuition has been replaced with thought in the world of typological understanding.
What people really wish to be is an intelligent thinker.
Anyone can procrastinate. It takes a real conscientious mind to fulfill one's obligations.
Anyone can spend some time alone. It takes a special talent to take on social situations with ease and finesse.
And so on.
... yeah...
Lol...yeah...except I know social people who can't handle introverts worth a crap. They try everything they can to pull us out and its just that we don't want to be pulled out. Plus there are many people who go stir crazy if they are not social. Put them around an introvert that is reserved and quiet and they don't know what to do, they have to talk.
