4. Well, yeah.

In the US it's a horrible system of laws based on politics and, more importantly, laws based on court decisions that makes life unbearable.

Then administrators and parents play CYA because nothing can ever be their fault and seldom the fault of the kids.

A lot of regulations drive policy; then the policy has results that the regulators don't like so they rewrite the regulations to punish the results and get a second set of results they don't like. No hint that just perhaps the regulators make a bunch of assumptions that are just plain wrong.
