As an electrical engineer you'll typical use f, ω, and s, in different contexts and you'll learn each of those contexts separately.
f: consumer electronics
ω: circuits
s: frequency response
Having multiples of terms for each is definitely a hindrance to education. It makes switching between each use a mental headache.

Perhaps it's just my unconventional education (see username), but when I'm doing something like filter design, I really do end up using all of those at once. I'll do the on-paper design portions with s, the computational section of the design with ω, and then when I build the thing to test it, the scope or spectrum analyzer read out in f (if I'm lucky). So they're genuinely all there at once!
