My current thinking, btw, is that forethought
connectives are not worth mentioning in an introductory course, as they
are too infrequently used.

But they are so tidy and clear as opposed to the infix ("now negate the

"both ...and..." and "either... or..." -- and how else can you negate a
compound sentence?).
