Some allergy suffers are severely impaired, so intense are their sensitivities.
Are they due consideration? At least some.

In such case as standard school cleaning supplies affects one person in 10 million, it might be necessary that regardless of how intense that reaction be that that student not attend school.
It might be cheaper.
What are the comparative costs?
If 10 million other students are not affected and the cost of changing the supplier entails risk of other person's allergies, then the lesser evil might be just that.

Peanut allergies might have increased over many years or just been recognized as source of great discomfort.

Was it ligitation and awards via courts that established so many warnings in supermarkets, such disclaimer?

Perhaps measures of peanut allergy will some day be more readily available.
Nowadays doctors and/or other health professionals might ask of allergies and a person have to decide via: "yes" or "no".

Some out of respect of fatal allergic reactions of antibiotics say no to such as "lactose intolerant".
A common human development, certainly not everyone, to Lactose intolerance has led to a still relatively new product "Lactose Free Milk".
Banning all milk for severe reactions of some ESPECIALLY Lactose intolerant and perhaps forgetful is clearly wrong.

Perhaps more study will be made of differences between "intolerance" and "allergy" and ways of meeting changing consumer needs with respect to an environment subject to such threats as Global Warming and extremely alarming disappearing pollination agents such as honeybees (Are they going extinct?).
