I agree. Nowhere else are we likely to get something optimized for that especially since it took nearly a decade to create.

It took a long time to create but it's nearly 4 decades old. A lot has happened since then.

True, but high school curricula have changed very little in the last four decades.

Most of the high school curricula is about subjects where the knowledge base that's supposed to be communicated didn't change much in the last 4 decades.

But look at math. 4 decades ago students where taught how to use slide rulers. There was no Core math four decades ago.
