That stops the regular scholars mate but not the variation
If however, we assume Black isnt a complete moron, it is a good bet that Bh5 would be met with g6. And after Qf3 black could play Nf6, or Qe7, or f5, or Nh6, or g6, or Qf6... hell! even Ke7 avoids mate!!
to fall for this mate you need to be a moron or an new player in the first place

No. On how to avoid scholars mate. The generations of chess players are getting more and more intelligent. We finally found a refutation to the once feared Scholars mate. Now we may speaks its name aloud.

Eh, before we didn't even know about the Fool's mate. The scholar's mate, in my opinion, should be easy to avoid. it's a very eviale checkmate
I have always opposed this by offering a queen swap. Seems a good idea - anyone who brings their queen out like a wrecking ball will be at a disadvantage without it.
Doesn't d4 just win a piece after Nh6?
Of course playing e4 Bc4 Qf3 Ne2 and 0-0 is possible, but it throws away white's opening advantage, the queen isn't too effective on f3 and the knight would rather be on f3 than e2.
But I'm guessing you already know this blitetwinkle 
I did not know this was possible. Now I can pick up chess again.
