What you tell me about your "top physicists" leads me to suspect that
they can't express themselves in writing. Physics is a form of
communication, and the ability to express one's self in writing is an
vital part of being a "top physicist".
The grades that you give your students should ultimately represent
you warranty as to their ability to "perform physics". If this is
not the case, then it is unlikely that I would want to hire any of
your graduates to work in a physics/engineering environment, or
recommend them for admission to my alma mater. That's because there
are many students whose high grades are meaningful predictors of
their future performance.
