Honestly, sand is best to stay away from for new keepers. Most new keepers get bad advice on temps and the like.

Yes it's best to educate but I find most people can't handle all the information given at one point. So just the starter info is best.

I see what you mean, but still I rather see more people switching to natural cages

By all means keep posting pics and educating!

For new people, well most, I don't suggest sand is all.
