Fraud is generally defined as intentionally deceiving others for personal or financial gain. I think it’s pretty clear here that these people were wrong, and arguably deceiving themselves, but certainly not intentionally deceiving others (which implies knowing true facts and withholding them). And I also think their main aim was to improve the lives of children, not personal enrichment.
Again, not everything that’s wrong or bad is illegal.

Yet, no one has been held accountable. There has not been any reckoning for that teacher who ignored best practice because 'fuck bush', and all the others who advocated for cueing. Lucy Caulkins has made millions peddling techniques that have ruined the lives of 1000s of kids. If this were a drug, you would be demanding the company be out of business.
