I disagree. I think this sort of traditional, verbal logic becomes ingrained in the mind in a way that more modern logical systems don't. While we have a more rigorous, strictly correct understanding of logic now, its separation from the expression of ideas in a subset of natural language makes it harder to apply to one's day-to-day thought. I greatly value my early exposure to syllogistic logic and early Greek philosophy; I think it improved my reasoning and thereby my life.
