Can’t you still load new versions of ChromeOS yourself?
I never liked the “forced upgrade of your OS” anyway. Not for windows or Chrome. It was annoying when ChromeOS kept forcefully insisting I upgrade my Linux when I already had Linux exactly how I wanted it.
I imagine the IT person at schools might not be thrilled at the prospect of updating all Chromebooks in the school manually. On some schools, the IT guy might be a teacher doing double duty and simply might not have enough time to do it manually. One of the main selling point of Chromebook is low maintenance after all.

On my C202 I’d have to open the case, remove a jumper screw, flash a custom BIOS…
I don’t even wanna do that on one Chromebook, never mind 20,000 of them.
Yeah it sounds like a goddamn nightmare.
