Tau is good.
But I disagree with the base premise.

If you can name the Tau, it isn't the Tau.
This is awesome; I celebrate all geek holidays.

I think the article misprinted that.

I agree with PF, the diameter of a circle is starkly visually defined by it crashing into, but not beyond, the circumference. A radius requires the further action of discovering and using the centre of the circle.
This is like someone claiming the half inch is a better general unit of measure because there would be a smaller consistent rounding error. If this were the case, then 100/254th of an inch would be better. We could call it a centimeter.

And . . .?
Your pint and gallon are inconsistent with the rest of the world, so why not foot as well?

I've had some passing thoughts about that too.
