It would be great if more Yale grads ended up staying in CT and ventured outside of the New Haven bubble.

I agree. I have seen schemes elsewhere where student debt goes away if you work in the city for 5 years after graduating

I'd be curious if that program would be effective for graduates of the most highly ranked university in the country, where initial job offers out of school rank among the very best.

Good point. The very top performers would leave, but I imagine many undergrads with less in-demand majors might stay. Whether their training would add much to the city’s development is hard to say, but I imagine it would still be significant and positive.
