I think the point is to get people excited about science and show what is possible/spark curiosity rather than trying to recreate a classroom. You can see this by all the kids that take his classes. There is space for both to exist.

I wonder how many of those kids are going to reconsider once they find out that doing "real science" is, in reality, far more boring.
Same could be said about almost all of the "technology" field most of us work in. I mean think of how many people dream of being a game developer... what a shock that must be.
Excited about engineering, not really science.
