Latitude and Longitude? By definition it’s not starting in radians. After that, pi is involved but that doesn’t mean you have to use radians, unless you define “anything that uses pi is radians”. The discussion TFA started was about programming computers optimally. If you want the code to be readable by humans with a math background, or Wikipedia background, sure, use the algorithms as written down. TFA was not targeting that audience. It was targeting folks who care about two pointless multiplies in their (checks notes) game engine.
