I like this series because they actually show that adult that not part of the main character are actually fucking capable. I fucking hate seeing adult in most series are somehow less useful than a fucking middle and high schoolers, like they somehow give the fate of the world in the hand of someone who never even have the joy of fucking and drinking, what a cruel fate

Some random devices automatically performing counterspells seem really broken and out of nowhere. Not to mention how if they existed, they should've been in active use preemptively all along, without needing the extra motivation from the attack.
Not really, it seems like the kind of thing that would be necessary to actually keep people imprisoned in the Netherworld, since dangerous and powerful prisoners would be able to break through if not.
It also seems to act Indiscriminatelly with its set up of Authorized and Unauthorized Spells. It's not about WHO casts it, but about WHAT is cast, at least by how they said it.
So, intruders would still be able to use the Spells that the Teachers are allowed to use, and as Magic seems to be pretty standarized with many very useful spells being taught early in school, it would be possible to use it.
Then there is also the thing of how expensive it may be to set and keep a system like this up, how it could become an inconvenience for Teachers and Students that often use or require certain Spells in daily life, how much power can it actually counter before it breaks...
There are lots of factors that we don't know about, that could make it a very reasonable implementation in the setting.
I very much doubt it's Omnipotent or something close to that.

People often don't worry about security measures until they have a reason to, especially in places they think are perfectly safe. Heck, I know people that don't even bother to lock their doors when they leave the house because they're convinced nobody would steal their stuff, and that's even after they were informed that theft is a possibility they should consider, and then there are stores that only get better security systems in place after a major theft.

As for it being "broken," it's probably not all that broken. Heck, the fact they only have it in place in specific rooms indicates that it takes effort and resources that make its uses limited (much like how you can't cover everything with cameras and other security devices and need to pick and choose your priorities.) And all of this is before you factor in the inconveniences that such systems typically cause (like how the wording implies you can only apply reactions to certain spells, not have it determine friend from foe, meaning it'd even negate teachers in an incident.) Such devices also commonly have a weak point that can be exploited, so it's doubtful it's really as all powerful as you seem to think. 🤔

Like people ironically still use 123456 as password wtf.
