Data point—in my intro stats course (at college), ‘Bayes Theorem’ was never explicitly taught, but you get all the probability required and are given Bayes-like problems (that I explicitly used Bayes’ to solve) - they just never put an intimidating theorem on the board.
This may or may not be standard in intro stats courses
In the CMU OLI course on statistics, Bayes Theorem is presented late on in the course, very briefly, and as restricted to simple population sampling; it’s very easy to see how someone taking it could forget about it the day after doing the problems.
