And the more we reinforce this narrative of learning loss, it invalidates everything you just said. Right? Everything that I know that I've learned doesn't matter. Because we're still looking at this year, people didn't measure up. We didn't learn the things we're supposed to learn so now you're behind. Right. So now you're behind, learning loss. And it's really invalidating.
