Isn’t this being taught in quantum mechanics and Fourier transform courses at the advanced undergraduate level nowadays? The basic idea is discussed in Wikipedia pages for both Uncertainty Principle and Fourier Analysis. Since Fourier Analysis is so fundamental to Information Technology, I assumed FA would be covered in the first year or two, so this sort of discussion would pop up in a third year or fourth year QM or signals processing course.
It’s much more insightful than the uncertainty principle discussions in the Paleolithic era when I went to school, albeit the first FA derivation of the uncertainty principle dates back to the 1950s and 1960s.
