At any school in the system the top performers would be in advanced classes and receiving the top education at that school. We are talking about public schools, everyone pays taxes for these schools not just the families of the top performers. Therefore, every student should have access to the AP classes and resources that are centralized within magnet schools.

Why? Why should a student who isn’t (or probably shouldn’t be) college-bound have theoretical (or actual) access to an AP course?

I was barred from taking our Vocational-Technical courses (auto repair, auto body, advanced shop, etc) because they weren’t offered to G&T kids. That also seems fine to me. Not every human is well suited for every endeavor.
