Too true, this comment is a little dated, but in the year after the dot com bust(2001 as I recall) here in Kalifornia, back when UniSource still existed, their salesman told us that they lost a shop a day during that time period . . . and that was not just mom and pops but printing companies sometimes with 100s of employees . . . ."If you think you are too small to be effective
you have never been in the dark with a mosquito."

When ones training and skills are too specific, it means they are not so transferable. If much of ones knowledge is based on myths, that makes it even worse. I see this as a sad situation for some of the young people being educated by the graphic arts institutions.
If these young people don't make it in the printing industry, they don't have the management training needed for other industries where other candidates probably have some business school education. They don't have anywhere near the science and technical education that other candidates would have gotten from engineering schools or science degree programs.
Of course, if they have a family printing business, then they would have a guaranteed job for life. Oops, I forgot, this thread is about the vanishing family print businesses. No job security there.
