I can see why this order of learning was included by God in His Word.. we know what happens when so-called Christians move onto advanced topics after getting rid of the foundational basics.

I believe there's a typo in your third paragraph with your reference to drifting away (did you mean 2:1?).

Yes, pastors should firmly address the issue of LGBTQ+ ideology, even - or especially - in a country that has made opposition to it a crime.

Interesting perspective. I see the omission of the fundamental doctrines in Hebrews as possibly due to the fact that the audience presumably already had access to the materials they needed pertaining to these doctrines, namely the Pauline and Petrine epistles, and perhaps even some of the gospels; and so the author of Hebrews felt no need to spend his precious parchment and quill resources rehashing what they could review for themselves and so carried on to the more advanced doctrine.

Either way, your conclusions are sound.
