I don't think this experience is as universal as some people might think. Maybe it's because I grew up in a poor district, but most of those wall mounted sharpeners at the "bin" were broken or had been removed decades prior. And in the few select cases where they existed and were functional, the teachers would absolutely no put up with kids taking frequent or extended sharpening breaks.
