I think you may be underestimating how much anxiety this creates for some folks. I would have LOVED it if any of my high school teachers/college profs had spent even 10 minutes talking about this stuff. I really relate to all the "why did we study X but not doing taxes" content - it's always felt like a major missing chunk of my education.
