I feel like teachers are going to have to set aside time for essay writing in class instead of as homework.

I have always been opposed to the concept of “homework”, so I would support this.

True, but at some point they'll need to use a computer to write the essay. At that point, it's pretty easy to slip over to an AI prompt

Teachers can just watch the handful of children with disabilities that require a computer.

I think this works. I was in fact one of them, although honestly, at a certain point, they trusted me and weren't even watching all that hard.

I meant more that, at some point, kids do need to practice long-form writing on a computer. At that point, you have to watch everybody.
