Is your claim that most people find a need to do geometric proofs in every day life? I am misreading you, right?

Deductive reasoning, building blocks of proof are used in everyday life, rather than the ability to recognize geometric pattern.

It'd be a lot better to teach deductive reasoning by providing people with a list of facts and asking them to draw a conclusion.
