I saw someone argue this is them reducing civilian casualties. They use roof knocking and delayed explosives and shit. Just sounds like they want to show off how much better their military equipment is, tbh.

Ignoring the capabilities kids have by denying them lessons on technology could be a bit detrimental to their potential imo. There’s a middle ground that I offered in a response below

Collecting personal phones and such makes sense if they have devices strictly for school. They could even benefit from having time set aside as they grow to learn how to program the tech themselves. Structure out time for group activities for younger ages, sharing one tablet between like 4 kids. Monitor how they’re using the devices between the school days and make sure they aren’t adding shit that’s distracting from the lessons.
