This is obviously completely bizarre approach for random internet people to pick up titles and judge whether it appropriate topic or not.
First, a majority of the grants listed there are in the EDU Directorate, i.e. devoted to
EDU Programs - Directorate for STEM Education (EDU), which many of the commenters have no clue about.
Second, I looked at the MPS section (mathematical and physical sciences) that I did get grants from in the past:
And here are the cancelled grants. In my opinion these are all sensible topics to be funded (especially since it is probably a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the total budget):
