If deficiency to tensors and differential forms is a reason not to be taught, then why do we learn about vector notation?

Oh right, because it's a natural language for talking about geometry and mechanics, by far the most common and important type of reasoning that the average student will need to do. And geometric algebra is demonstrably superior for that domain. So your comment is pointless.
