Lack of universal success is poor evidence for failure here. School is the only environment in which anyone spends most of their day sitting down with minimal freedom to choose when to get up or freedom over when to use the bathroom. I spent about five hours a day sitting in high school. I imagine you did the same, as do the overwhelming majority of children who graduate. This is unnatural behavior and school teaches it. It also teaches obedience to authority and tolerance for pointless busywork. That not all children learn the lesson is not evidence it’s not taught.
