Carrying a firearm, permitted or not, does not make anyone smarter, luckier, tho it might make one feel better. It just makes them armed.

The fantasy that students packing could have prevented this is just supposition.

Do you really think that more people would have been killed?? There are a whole lot of other possibilities. Putting a hitch in the shooters "plan" may have delayed more killings and allowed law officers more time to get in and help. May have kept shooter from getting into more rooms, etc.
