I'm pretty sure that doesn't negate the ability of earthbenders to bend bone, since most elemental systems figured out pretty quickly that bones were related to stones. And you can't tell me that if bloodbending had been invented several times in the past, that it wouldn't have been whispered about, even if nobody had spoken of it out loud, and we have no indication of that at all.
Also, there's the cool factor of an earthbender making skeletons dance that I am not willing to give up.
When I was learning alphabets, I spent a lot of time looking up letters in the chart. It's not that it's harder to remember with some other sense, it's that it's harder to make reference charts. As I said, it could be done, but it would be really really difficult.
You know, that's my new headcannon. Pee for liberation!
