No. They are not. They are only good for a short period as a temporary alternative. Not for whole semester or even whole school year.

I strongly disagree. My kids have benefited tremendously from virtual learning for a decade. It enabled at least two of them to graduate on time.

We started remote learning this year and we find it, in every way, better than no schooling at all. In some ways it is even better than norm-year, in person schooling - eg: quieter edu time, no between-class cattle herding, no time lost to transportation.
