honestly I think I wanna write (2*pi) every time I need tau just to avoid confusing others. Maybe make it auto-subsitute or something. But many mechanical engineers have no idea why to use tau and use 2pi instead.
Just use 1/2 tau anytime you need pi instead. Eventually they’ll learn.
Edit: actually, this’ll never come up because tau usually alone and 2pi is used as a replacement and never alone. You never need just 1 pi, unless it was divided by 2 already.
