The code above would perform differently from the exercise objective.
Why not try it yourself in the workspace and see? I'll tell you what it would do, but seeing it for yourself would be more memorable.
Anyway, the value of using $(this) as in the teacher's example is that each button will only reveal the spoiler associated with it. Your code above would cause either button to reveal both spoilers, and hide both buttons.
