That's what you do in courses like "Introduction to Software Engineering" (first/second lecture), which usually are part of the first BSc CS semester.

I don't disagree though that the title is misleading and the content quite disappointing and it wouldn't make a semester-long course because that list is covered in 10 minutes and it's nowhere near academia.

I knew what to expect from the title. An actual computer scientist wouldn't be clueless enough to suggest (s)he can teach everything about computer science. Instead he would probably say how (s)he would teach something in his(er) narrow field of specialization - algorithms, databases, operating systems, compilers, whatever.
