How is that whataboutism?

It's not that schools have become unable to teach kids to read analog clocks or kids have become unable to learn it. It's not that they can't it's that they don't

But speaking of whataboutism, your argument is literally "well what about all the useless stuff that I learned in school???"
How about they stop teaching useless stuff, and the first things they can throw out are cursive and analog clocks.
