I haven't even played Minecraft and I know it can easily be used for educational purposes. You are completely missing the point of it. It's not about building or adventuring, the educational part is crafting. The crafting puzzles are encouraging logical thinking. Thinking hard about what components can be used in what way to craft a specific thing is not less effective at teaching logic than basic math.
And then there are machines that can be built, which are basically gigantic logic puzzles which stay challenging far beyond elementary level.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
