My opinion is that this only highlights a major oversight in education, though, because except for Geometry proofs, and some conversations about the scientific method, high school students are not introduced to the basics of logic. Even college students mostly manage to avoid the topic, since it's mostly presented in a philosophy course which is elective for most students, and considered a to-be-avoided one at that. As a result, most people think they know what "logic" means, and then go about proving how they don't.
Logic is only the basic building block of scientific, mathematical, and philosophical thought, so how important could it be?
Definitely a point of view I've had. Along with a range of meta- skills from research design, skepticism, logic (and fallacies), and set theory to heuristic development, mnemonics, mind-mapping, introspection, learning theory, and more... I'd have all that taught directly when kids are ready for it. Not accidentally and unmeasurably fluffed under other topics like literature or speech or geometry, etc.
