If the learning is already complete then any homework seems like utterly unnecessary busywork.

There’s learning, and there’s practice. Both are necessary.
Practice during school hours is more than enough. Primary education is not so demanding that you need more to succeed.
In which case homework should be wholly unnecessary.
It is, unless you spend too much time in a lecture format with too little deep practice. Taking work home is not a good solution.
