How hard is it to learn 10 symbols, won't take me more than an hour and unless you are really dumb it won't be impossible.

With respect, may I point out that this is exactly what I said in an earlier post in a sentence that was judged as "ad hominem".
You have gone past your school and college education and perhaps postgraduate education as well without having been burdened by the need to do your math in two sets of numerals, and without having been burdened by less than competent teachers who are themselves unable to master these things "in an hour".
It probably does not make sense to think that your ability to master these in an hour will be the same for a 22 year old training to be a school teacher. This teacher may spend months or years making mistakes in correcting children's school books written by little kids. At the best of times, in one language, children's books and exam papers require correction with sympathy and care. If you create a confused teacher - it will have an immediate effect on the performance of children that parents will not tolerate.
So an ability to implement something on the basis of its alleged simplicity and your ability to master it in an hour are of no practical value in planned implemention of theuse of regional languages in general education.
