Of course, a dedicated student may read good books in addition to what
the school requires. But the point is, they often can't just ditch the
book required for the studies, no matter how bad it is.
They often need to do exercises from the given book, and the book, no
matter how bad it is, probably makes it easier to follow the lectures
and summarize what has already been taught.
