Based on informal asking, most teachers who are supposed to be teaching fractions cannot figure out whether 2/3 is bigger than 3/5 or vice versa.
Given that fact, I am not optimistic about what you hope.
If that's the case, I don't believe dumbing down the curriculum to the lowest common denominator of teachers is the solution to the problem.
