I once abused a USB port on my laptop to use as a 5v power supply but I later shorted it by connecting the wrong wires. It didn’t explode but it did blow the fuse for that port.
Especially something marketed to schools to issue to every student. Seems like a basic safety feature. Sure, they shouldn’t be doing that but c’mon… kids do dumb shit sometimes.
That’s my thoughts as well

Kids do dumb shit all times
It’s only a safety feature if it stops someone from getting injured. If it just kills the device, that means they have to buy a replacement!
but… fire
