Actually, modern textbooks do exactly that: they try to find pedagogically better ways to teach this stuff.

And sometimes newer developments really simplify things.

All that apart from the simple fact that mathematics and the user interface and user interaction are not even in the same ballpark.

Your comment seems a bit lazy to me. Just not in a way you expected to.
