I didn't say it was. In fact I said what you just said!

My point was that, without SOME form of protected filespace,
separating the (global for all students) card and (individual for each
student) scheduling information would still not work, since other
students can still trash or modify either or both files (or if they
were somehow read-only, they still wouldn't be able to update the SRS
scheduling/grading data). So local SRS systems will not work.

Online SRS systems can work around the problem by providing that
individual filespace (in fact Anki has a free web-based hosting
service which could be used for this purpose), but, as you note,
Mnemosyne is not designed for it.
