Instead of them learning Lingo, and hoping that they make the correlation
between Lingo and "every other programming language", why not directly teach
them the logic behind programming languages?

Because you cannot do so in an efficient way - you have to have a language in which contructs like functions, loops etc. can be applied and tested. So you try to find a language that might be useful for the students - and Lingo seems better than most for graphic arts students. Plus you can see results very quickly in Lingo.
