Its to make sure that they don't get a billion questions about what button to push next and not being able to complete homework because of button confusion. Does it still need to exist today? Probably no but good luck getting rid of a standard adopted by all manufacturers of textbooks.

The solution is mandate standards to be adhere too and any contractors must have no patents so any manufacturer can be used.
