I'll bite that bullet: callers generally shouldn't be calling a dolphin hey at a regular evening dance.

dancers should need to understand the names of  a dozen or so basic figures (such as F&B, allemande, promenade, star, chain, right and left, circle, shoulders round, hey, and maybe several more)
Agreed, although I fear "several" might be more than you would expect.
 
and that callers should need only  basic figures to teach any dance.
I disagree with this.  How would you teach, say, a dolphin hey using only basic figures.
