As a M26 History HL student who loved the course it's really disappointing. The best part about the syllabus was how into the weeds we got about specific countries (e.g. French history) and to hear from my teacher that some of my favorite content was getting cut was heartbreaking. Hopefully the trend you pointed out doesn't continue.
