To this day, I believe there has to be better system for students to be engaged in the learning and actually care that does not include ridiculous assignments and homework. Nowadays teachers are already feeling the brunt of students giving AI answers to stuff they themselves copy pasted for the students to do for years. And then there is this stuff, "is just 2 exercises", and when you look at it, it is something similar to 2 free writing texts of around 250 to 300 words each. And then multiply this by the amount of subjects in the current year. Is this a beat by submission system for us to work like mules, or am I missing the picture here?
Nope you've pretty much got it. Several studies have shown homework is not an effective way to learn, especially not how it is assigned in many schools.
Some homework helps, large amounts do not. And that needs to be quality homework, which is rarely what is assigned. Even then, prior to high school, there is little evidence of widespread benefit, the benefits from generalized social and family interaction are better for overall development.

Plus that kind of bullshit with "3" problems with 8 totally unrelated problems is just bad. It's one thing if the items are related to each other somehow, otherwise it just looks like dishonesty. And that's not a good basis for learning.
I will say that homework in maths and science are important, but that's highschool and beyond. A student can't build intuition unless they learn to solve the problems without assistance.
