Never understood why we're taught specific names for these trig functions rather than just expressing them all in terms of sine and cosine

Maybe it was back in the day people would rather remember shorthands for csc and such rather than having to write it out long form each time. (I agree with your point tho I'd rather not have to memorize those)
