Some seemed to think it's a good idea as it would restrict screen time as opposed to social media. Some thought that a better idea would be to ban U16's from social media instead.

It could reasonably be inferred from your posts that you support the idea. It is not unreasonable for OB to use the term.
If he (and I) are incorrect, what do you actually propose?
What mechanisms of enforcement (more important than the idea) do you propose? I didn't go to the greatest of schools but if you tried particularly hard you could probably find many prohibited substances (of multiple classes) and/or weapons on a given day. And I'd consider that pretty average for teenage education in this country.
