Are only the wealthy to marry the wealthy? That is a little class-est, IMO.
Nope, that he has no intellectual curiosity. That's what I mean. To me that's not who or what Rory is about. Not formal education.

While I'm not sure I consider Jess to be her intellectual equal I do think he had, in that department, the ability to keep her engaged. Marty as well. To me it has more to do with wanting to know more. Something Dean seemed to lose as he grew older. And it's something I think is important to Rory.
