I cannot disagree more, Hugh.
Most people learn radians in basic school, why forget about it?
And radians are more efficient, since they allow direct conversions
between angles and arc lengths.
A radians is just the angle walked going a full radius around the circle
(that's why it is called a radian). For me, it is intuitive, since it
relates to concrete things (not degrees, which seems to be purelly
conventional - well, we could allways get back to history books to have
a feeling about degrees).
Anyway, the conversions (for the ones who prefer degrees) are
straightforward (just use "static final" multipliers instead of
dividers, for the sake of computational efficiency).
