Most likely scenario: school boards buy it, then use it to justify cutting the number of teachers.

They won’t actively cut teachers, they just won’t hire as many specialists. We have a couple math specialists who just do remedial math. Kids who are at grade level or above get zero attention during math time. This will be a cheap way to provide attention to those kids, at a fraction of the cost of hiring more math specialists or classroom teachers.
