Having a group scared of your app is the mark of disruption!
I hear what you're saying about avoiding complicated subject matter - that's an interesting effect I hadn't considered.
That being said: I was the victim of several "bad" profs in university. Thing is I don't think they were "bad" - I just don't think they knew that they weren't "good" and even if they had, wouldn't have had any idea how move from bad to good.
I see this app as one part of a larger equation around designing systems that produce quality education. A complete suite would include tools for professors, administration, and students.
