You can mediate that interaction via markets. You can also mediate it via state action (read: the government can pay for it) - but then we have to reach out to voters to convince them that the government should still pay for it.
I'm not sure I see under what system classics - or any field of academic work - wouldn't have to make its case to *someone.* We don't farm our own food, we don't build our own buildings. We're going to need, at some point, to exchange our classics for someone else's bread.
