Maybe for school children. But for the rest of us, it isn't. It's totally expendable in a normal day.
But if I'm headed out for a significant ride in the morning - you know, above 50 miles - no way I'm going out on an empty stomach. A century without a solid breakfast? That's just asking to bonk.
That was for people working on farms and heavy labor- nobody who isn't trying to lose weight needs to intermittently fast.
The easiest way for someone to lose weight is to not eat much and work their butt off and the easiest way to gain weight is to eat fast food and sit on their butt all day/night.
Math- it's not just for breakfast.
