Going by the atrocious salary expectation for teaching (which i firmly place as one of, if not the most, fundamentally important jobs in modern society) i think we've already established where we land on this.

And note how i didn't mention a country; i think this is a widespread issue beyond country borders currently.

My only other frame of reference is China where being a teacher is a very respectable and competitive job with good wages. (Software engineering is way less prestigious interestingly.) They even have a national holiday for teachers. So it would be essentially unthinkable for a tech company to drop a demo that threatens teachers.

My frame of reference is europe and America. I suspect more of asia than just china mirrors that respect, as education feels nearly unhealthily emphasised.

The so called advanced world that prosper on innovation, design and R&D is skimpimg on the very thing that is supposed to be our advantage. Its frustrating.
