.. that tenure may protect some teachers that are not as capable or motivated, or who may have become less motivated over time.
This is still better than allowing "at will" employment, resulting in schools filled with political cronies who are incapable of teaching as well as the initmidation of teachers who disagree with powerful politicians
As you pointed out, tenure has the extra value of protecting capable teachers against inept management.
