No they should not use Tau, because the point of education is to give you knowledge that you can build on later. Nothing else uses Tau, so teaching you Tau does

I'm not even gonna touch the Tau vs. Pi debate because it's like a sports team rivalry, and not a rational discussion.
- TuringTest 11y ago> Nothing else uses Tau, so teaching you Tau does not prepare you for further education. Nitpicking, but that is a self-defeating argument. If everybody used Tau, there would be no problem in teaching it. Not that I disagree that doing the bootstrapping its usage and reaching there would be a problem, but all by itself is not a reason to not try changing it.
