That’s all fine until you actually need the site. If it’s your bank, payment portal for your new apartment, scheduling page for your doctor, etc. Not every site is optional.
That might be true where you live, good for you. Where I’m from, calling the doctor is still possible, but the other two examples are not an option or practically unfeasible. So many services are digital by default, some have options for communication by physical mail, but that comes with extra fees. Straight up avoiding websites if they use these new captchas introduces a disproportionate burden.
My kids’ school district provides district-managed chromebooks. I stuck them on their own walled-off VLAN. Out of sight, out of mind. Any time my kids come to me with an issue on their chromebooks, I point them back to the school’s IT guy. Trying to instill the “this thing belongs to the school, therefore any issues with it are the school’s problem” mindset. I’m not rude about it, just very frank.

If a school’s assignment submission software has it, it’s not the same story.
Get real. Nobody is enough of a masochist to do college homework on a de-googled android phone. (Sent from my Brax3)
