Recessive and dominant are pretty useful though, many genetic diseases and cancer causing mutations are technically dominant and repressively patterned. It's a concept that is good for new comers to fit into different blocks and see where it fits. Then it is a great jumping off point for identifying the spaces where it doesn't fit, which is where I think this conversation would shine in later courses.
Personally I'm a fan of the chemistry model where each class they start with
