I can absolutely see a jackass teacher doing this the other way.
"Congratulations, you decided that worthless fish was worth more than your future. Get out. You fail. Worth it?"
Saving a fish's life over getting biased bs grades? Absolutely worth it, because I can live with the consequences of such grades, but not with the fact being obedient and stare at a dying fish longer than 30 seconds.
It is not about the fish, but about our values compared to stupid rules.
I've had so many rotten authority figures, including teachers, in my personal life that I had to consider the possibility.
I have trust issues because of it. Always assuming the worst in people.
It's one reason I was so slow to get on the Trump train.
