> However, framing this as a de facto book ban is definitely "editorializing"

If public schools are purposely preventing books that would otherwise be present from being included in their libraries, how is that anything other than a book ban? A ban doesn't have to be across an entire legal jurisdiction to be a ban; if someone got wasted and tried to start a fight at a bar and then was never allowed back in again, you'd still say they were "banned" even if they were able to go to other bars in the city.

Because adults are still freely able to access the books, while children need protection from hate-filled ideas like Communism.
