"children shouldn’t have to read stories written in anything other than the present-day vernacular"

Makes sense to me. I never did understand Shakespeare, Chaucer, Faulkner, much of The Bible, and more. There is much that would have a greater effect on more people if it were translated into readable language BEFORE forcing students to spend time on it.

A lot gets lost in translation.
