it wasnt too far away
He didn't know where new namek was and so asked king kai for the direction so he could scan their KI levels
edit: now i just read wiki and it said it was too far away wtf, not how i remember it =(
edit2: no i was right, it wasnt too far away to teleport but too far away to read KI
he teleported to king kai, then to new namek.
If he thaugt trunks the instant transmission he still couldnt go to new namek, beacuse he hadn't met king kai, so he couldn't feel king kai's Ki ?
but then again, goku could have taken trunks to king kai etc.
so still, if he thaught trunks the technique, he could have saved his entire future.
