My mistake, I didn't see that that. It's certainly more of a stretch that they would go after pre-high school data; but it might not matter, if in fullfillment of the NSL google has to provide said archived data anyway.

That's not how counter intelligence works. You gather everything you can about a subject because it tells you more of who they are and what makes them tick, or break.
My problem is you're trying to exercise "reason" here. it's unreasonable to suspect that they would issue an NSL for school data. I agree. but that doesn't mean they can't, or won't. Or that such data wouldn't be exposed or used in another way. And that's the problem. It's not a non-issue because they're kids. It's less interesting because they're kids, but not easily ignored because of it.
