Homework is actually useful practice if you’re not stupid enough to use an LLM to complete it.

Exactly, it's the most important part of the math education, there is no point in memorizing definitions and theorems without putting everything into practice.
But it seems like the temptation to get perfect solutions from an LLM is too big for many students nowadays, they lack the maturity to understand that using LLMs for basic assignments is counterproductive.

I might argue that homework is, for mathematics, where the useful learning happens.

Yes it's all fun and games reading uni level maths nodding along to all the proofs until you're suddenly asked to do the exercises and suddenly nothing made sense and you are completely confounded by such an innocent looking question.
