Well…I think the “home” part of homework is also a problem. IMO we should really do review work at school or in some non-home space, and non-recreation time.
Like the 8 hour work day was supposed to be 8 hours work, 8 hours rest, and 8 hours recreation. School + homework + transit regularly exceeds the 8 hours. (And 8 hours work is way too much, we should be working wildly less with the incredible technologies that have been developed since the 8 hours work day concept was created.)
Education is important, reviewing previously learned stuff is important…but homework as a system does absolutely create a situation where kids are spending unbounded time outside of school on schoolwork. Practically, it’s way the fuck too much. IMO school time, like work time, should be bounded.
