I'm not 100% sure I'm understanding your suggestion, but if I am, the flats and sharps in the dots could be misleading. In the dots it, the accidentals would be relative to the tonic, but it wouldn't actually mean that the note being played is sharp or flat.

That natural minor is incorrect; it's missing the 3rd degree. It could be argued that the melodic minor is only correct when ascending, but I suppose I'm just being nit-picky.

I can see how this makes someone comfortable playing scales on the piano, but I'm not sure how this teaches someone the circle of fifths. I'm probably only saying this because I know it already, but I think learning the circle of fifths is easier without an instrument in front of you, instead of trying to find a way to use the instrument as a vehicle to learn it. Applying it to an instrument becomes easier when you know it in your head first.

I've been in the workforce for about 9 years. The first three years were as a technician that required me working on site. The last 6 of which, I've worked from home in DevOps and other engineering roles. I can't even fathom what it means to work in an office. I didn't even realize people in tech worked in offices because I never did. It's weird to me that this is even controversial.
