I believe the issue is that children are involved. If Roblox re-oriented itself to become an education platform where children can explore and learn different things virtually... that would be a win/win. e.g., Roblox could say, if you create a mini game that fulfills this lesson plan about chocolate [1], then your minigame can be published in the Educational section of the platform. Parents could then let their children participate in the Educational games only. I would for one would gladly donate/pay for such a service.

BTW the lesson plan for chocolate asks students to design a new chocolate bar. Choose the ingredients and design a wrapper. The students/players can then vote on their favorite design etc.
