Quick alternate view on this story from someone who sat the exam (+ her friends): “literally no-one GAF … it was the most interesting because it had the most language features to discuss.”
Maybe RNZ (and those quoted) just need to take a deep breath and chill out a bit?

A student and teacher spoken to by RNZ said the text, which appeared in the NCEA level 2 exam, made them feel very uncomfortable.

If you read the terms of the package it’s a bunch of highly improbable goals Tesla could not reach in a reasonable time frame so this is literally just a “special boy wants attention” deal. Elon wants the press to report on it to “trigger” libs and look cool to his little rube followers
BREAKING: Tesla shareholders just approved a pay package for Elon Musk that’s worth up to $1 trillion.

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A woman (70s?) is laughing as her husband tries to read a menu.
She says: "Forgot your glasses didn't you?"
"Yep."
"Want help?"
"Nope."
"Good. Because I wasn't gonna offer."
He gives her a fierce faux scowl, then stalks off to inspect the cakes. (1)
