I'm talking about using 1D12 as a substitute for 2D6, since everything in base TFT is a D6 roll. 6-7-8 are significantly more common results than 2 or 12, whereas on a D12 every result is equally likely (and there is no 1 result in 2D6). So I'm saying a D12 doesn't replace 2D6, unless one is willing to live with a drastically different results curve.

However, it sounds like they're adding more types of dice rolls to TFT, with the D3 now being a thing. (I've used ½D6 rolls myself for certain things in my TFT campaigns.) And if that comes about, them more dice choices are indeed welcome. ^_^
