Yeah, but what if they do like the popular school as a backup? Wouldn't eliminating swaps lower the average rank of assigned schools, and thus decrease happines

- tylerhou 9y agoLower average rank of assigned schools might mean decreased happiness, but this system also increases fairness because those who game the system tend to be better educated/more privileged. Disallowing swaps forces people to rank schools honestly and prohibits such gaming of a system.
