Something less academic and more straightforward and practical like the 34s implementation would be much much better.
I gave up with the Prime on this topic, official answer is "Prime is for education, not ingeneers". I woul personnally think that what is good for engineers is probably good for studients but... oh well...

if the Prime is truly for education and not engineers, then they would simplify the process by being consistent to reinforce the methodology. Nothing is more confusing to students than inconsistent approaches in an area they are just learning. The confusion and frustration will cause them to quit using the Prime just like the engineers. Also 18 key strokes is just too many to get one conversion
