Yes. And this is why it is a problem if MIT is advertising a program
that lets parents decide in August that their child will have to eat
at one very specific type of facility. (Do not forget that this
program looks to parents exactly like the meal plan that all of their
child's friends are getting at their schools, so it would be
surprising if the majority of parents do not use this program.)
