Professional bodies are a necessary form of gatekeeping for practicing the craft of software engineering professionally.
You are then bringing a whole host of other issues that are related in nature but not in practice:
* Locking down of Android ecosystem
* Openness of education
* Remote teaching
* Remote or online examination
etc.
Professional bodies don't wall off the ability to learn nor to tinker at home, nor even to prototype or experiment (depending on scale and industry).
You can't confuse all these issues into one thing and say "we don't want this". It's a disingenuous way to argue the matter.
