Regarding #1

>Students sit all day, and sitting is exhausting.

Doing any unfamiliar job all day is exhausting. There are plenty of other professions where sitting all day is the norm (like programming). Of course, most have the option of taking a stretch when they want to, but the only time I have seen people do this on a regular basis was for medical reasons.

In high school, I had an administrator (the dean of students) enroll in one of my classes for a year.



Just because everyone sits all day doesn't mean everyone should. And working at a software company, I get up to stretch all the time because I just can't concentrate anymore. School kids do not have this option most of the time.
