The teachers DID interpose themselves. They removed the legos after the Legotown was damaged even though the kids didn’t want that. Only after months of jumping through hoops and patting themselves on the shoulder did the kids get the Lego back.
There are easier ways of teach kids how to share without not only depriving them of toys but making them feel utterly powerless over a random event and having the teachers unilaterally decide to take away the Lego. It wasn’t taken away from some particularly egregious event, it was an accident and the kids wanted to fix things but the teachers response was to show the kids had no agency or power in the decision at all. Way to show the kids what true power is!
