Seems a little drastic; couldn't they simply block domains and forbid vpns? Throwing the baby out with the bathwater seems counter-productive when a laptop is so essential for modern classes (far as I can see, I went to school in the pre-laptop era).

You can only do that if the school completely controls the laptop. You have to have the professor be able to verify that the student was using an approved laptop each class period. Seems like a nonstarter to me.

Students would just connect to their own hotspot and not have any restrictions.

Laptops aren't essential for modern classes, laptops (in the true consumer sense of the world) have barely been a thing that students can easily afford for barely 20 years (more like 15 if we're being honest here).
