I had a 2.8 in high school, didn't get Hope, and ended up in community college. It's not as trivial as you make it out to be, honestly.
Interestingly, a report came out a couple of years ago recommending it be changed to a 2.5 minimum and a $100k income cap[1], to broaden access to lower-income students. Didn't happen, though.
