Your completely missing the point.
Minnesota isn't trying to stop Coursera's innovation.
They just need to certify they're teaching legitimate stuff before they can claim to be an educational institution in Minnesota.
It doesn't seem unreasonable to me. If I wanted to teach people, it seems reasonable to prove that I know the subject I'm teaching.
