As it has been every time a major event has happened.
Not necessarily Sensei avoiding it, but always something happening to avoid confrontation.

Kumon-mi apparently has it's own age of consent, to go along with it's censorship laws:

However, their age of consent seems to be around 18, or Chika who is 16 wouldn't be that much of a big deal. Most of the girls seem to be 15 going on 16, or have already turned 16 like Chika and Noriko.
Imani still seems to consider everyone including Karin who should be nearly 17, "jailbait" though:

So, it's likely just the age of consent in Kumon-mi that would make what Sensei has been doing to everyone, "statutory rape" aka "technically rape" since the girls aren't allowed to consent by law. In Japan as a whole, it'd be looked down upon, but not exactly illegal. It might cause problems depending on where it happens though.
Edit: This could be considered Sel's western influence within the game. To be frank, fucking teenagers isn't as big of a deal in the East as it is in the West (even though it happens far too often either way, imo). Sensei's pedo stuff is probably where people tend to agree that it's bad no matter where (unless you're somewhere with an age of consent of 11 or less, probably.)

At the risk of being captain obvious I do believe that the semi-pedo nature of Sensei and his relationships is supposed to be taken in the context of the overall surrealist undertones of the game which seem to belay a remorseless cycle of nightmare fuel.
As in, this isn't your average high school sex fantasy game. It's a deconstruction of the genre. Kind of how like Evangelion is a deconstruction of the child hero with giant robot saves the day genre.
The age of the participants and the manipulative behavior used to get to them is supposed to make us uncomfortable.
At least that's my take on it.

I do think it's intended to make people uncomfortable (It is Denpa), but more than that, it seems to want to show that everyone thinks differently when it comes to what's right or not. Same with Incest, adultery, etc. Sel seems to want things to be seen under a questionable lense, yet is also able to portray the fact that not everyone cares or even sees these things as bad. Some approve of them. Even within the story, no matter what their society says.
Rin supports Sensei fucking a married woman. Ami finds adultery disgusting. Chika has no problem with an Uncle fucking his Niece. Ayane finds it absolutely disgusting. Kirin considers sexual assault as okay as long as the majority enjoys it. Yasu considers sex (and well, everything) without her god's permission as wrong. Nodoka considers Sensei horrible, and wants him to embrace that. Noriko considers Sensei good, and wants him to embrace that. Etc.
If you really want to get into the questionable stuff, then Sekai seems to approve of virtually anything including pedo stuff and wants Sensei to acknowledge what he does, while calling him a husk of a man. Tookie Tookie Jr (Tsukasa) acknowledges that little girls her age used to be married off and doesn't seem to take much issue with it. Then there's Nodoka and Ami who seem to consider it wrong, but are willing to accept Sensei no matter what his tastes might be. Then there's Chika who clearly calls him a "sick fuck" for even bringing Chinami up in a sexual context.

The way I see it this whole game is really set up to make us feel mildly uncomfortable. I mean, even Sensei isn't cool with him self half the time. Or rather, he is cool with him self but is completely open about that self not being cool. You get what I mean.
This game is like way deeper than most.

That's what I meant. Sekai used works like "technically" and "basically", grey zone words that are used when events being stated are disputable, i.e. Molly being raped, since forced penetration alone is generally regarded as rape, but also any forced sexual contact is considered rape depending on the considering party. It's the same in combat sports like MMA or boxing, where there's a knockout as well as a "technical knockout", when one fighter is down for the count but not actually knocked out. In this regard we were speaking purely about whether or not Molly had been penetrated.
As far as Sensei's blackouts go, they're definitely a coping mechanism, but not solely for the horrible things that he does, since Maya recently told him that the blackouts were a thing before the resets and they aren't mutually exclusive, as well as Ami shedding light on Sensei's mental condition throughout her years living with him. He's definitely closer to being unconscious than not during the blackouts since afterwards he always snaps out of them not knowing what's gong on. And idk if there's actually and otherworldly influences on him during blackouts that causes him assault girls, though the games seems to imply it, but since the game mostly takes place from Sensei's perspective, we don't know if those are part of his condition(s) or not, though similar seemingly otherworldly events with others like Sara and Sana might point to some type of influence might be in effect. Who knows. The only time that I can remember there being an outside perspective of his blackouts that we actually saw and not just some character talking about it was in the beginning when Ami came into her room and Sensei was naked on his knees repeatedly saying something like "I want to see her again.", and all of the things that he was experiencing weren't there from Ami's perspective, meaning that it was in fact all in is head.

He was repeating "I want to feel it again", also during one of the beach events, the one where Touka has a ramen stand heli'd in, Makoto talks about him enacting a plant council in front of the stand before walking in.

There's also been stuff like Tsuneyo not seeing the shadow figure that Sensei was seeing (and probably the fish, etc):

And Yasu has claimed Sensei was just thinking she was doing things:

Also, yeah:
There's how the whole Plant Council stuff definitely seemed to just be in Sensei's head:

At this point, I'm convinced like 80% of the weird stuff is just Mental Illness, that a few characters suffer from, including Sensei. The other 20%, is whatever is murdering and resetting people and the world. It kind of seems like some beings are just playing around with, and taking advantage of, a bunch of mentally ill people.
Something that actually affected things tho, were "Sekai" and her Dark Angels:

Despacito translates to "slowly", and the song is more or less about wanting a passionate sexual relationship.
You can probably find the song translated.
Why Ayane is so fond of it, isn't exactly clear, but it's likely related to her really wanting to be lovingly fucked by Sensei.
