As an instructor I DO NOT want to scare a student. That is counter productive. But givien enough experience, I do believe it is a good idea to introduce spins. I will ask if they want one demonstrated. If they are close to their checkride and uncoordinated then I will let it go to allow them to see what can happen

Yeah, I agree. I dont want to scare the student, and I wouldn't let it happen on our first few times doing stalls. I really only let mistakes go far if the student will actually learn from it. Or if the repeated verbal warnings don't seem to be making a difference.
