What level should one reach before starting to teach TPKs?

Always pointing out at some point that your advice is not the definitive answer, but that even better or different solutions can be found by other people. This way you urging them to grow as players and find the better answers and you are giving a word of caution that we are ALL students of this game. I think that inciting a player’s curiocity and making them see the fun into finding a better move or thinking a new idea, is always useful

Totally agree. I try to take care to always make this point when I get involved in teaching: there is no gospel, anything I say is just what I currently understand.

Closely related is this point: “There is no ‘best move’, it depends on the player”.

For example an early 3-3 invasion might be the best move for Leela Zero, but not for a TPK.
