Except they can work from home, and now that they’re actually required to their commute cost is way cheaper.

  Some teachers CAN work from home (not PE, Home-Econ teachers, etc.), but it's a less-than-ideal situation. Are children self-motivated enough to work from home? I know many adults who aren't. Without adults to keep children accountable a total work-from-home schooling is likely to create gaps in the kid's education. And which type of child is the least likely to have an adult around keeping them accountable? Impoverished children.

    A counter argument is that keeping kids physically proximate often exposes them to violence which makes school a lot harder and tends to really mess people up. Lots of modern jobs worth doing will end up remote (at least occasionally and often permanently) so it’s probably a good idea to start training them when they’re younger anyway.
