One of the things that I remember most from schooling (elementary through high school) was the amount of time spent doing discipline/class management. Or repeating and answering questions. Plus the whole lecture format doesn't work for everyone. Remote school probably cuts down on these things. Furthermore, for self-directed kids, there's always the possibility of simply going mostly asynchronous, watching lectures and reading textbook at their own pace (which might be faster than regular class now that most distractions are removed!).
