They removed the old "gym leaders visit" formula because irl kids was imitating this, thinking they can be alone out there. This is the reason why the formula in Alola was "school and family" . Something closer to what kids watching the anime have irl. With Ash and Gou in journeys, while they traveled alone a bunch of times, the anime made sure most of the times to show an adult allowing it, and how they took a plane or train to do so. If Ash go to Paldea, the school setting would fit and there wouldn't be much problems for the audience I believe.
