Hm, you're keen on having them develop a "hands-on" mentality, ain't it?
I'm with you on point (4)5, 6, and 7, though, since I also think that children and young adults are way too much online, and that's certainly not always in their best interest (I can speak from experience).
Moreover, homeschooling allows for 1:1 lessons, as well as the ability to structure the lessons in a way one see's fit, which translates to flexibility in both duration and contents of the respective lessons, both of which could benefit the child in multiple ways.
Furthermore, although religion can be a source of friction and work in someone's disadvantage (women under Sharia-law), i'm largely with you on integrating it, as well, as it can give the child a moral compass and "ruleset" to live by; I think i'd go with Buddhism, you?
I think, even more than the moral compass part of things, the religious community is very important. So Buddhism wouldn't work for that, because there's so little community (at least where I live). You'd have to practice it on your own, which in my opinion defeats the whole purpose of having a religion...
