When she wrote 茶道, I also said chadou and she immediately corrected me. Now sadou has been burned into my brain cells. :) I also wouldn’t call myself very cultured. :)

I didn't know that, but I'm not very cultured anyway. I obviously just wrote it with the most common readings. Kenkyusha lists both but as you said, sadou is the preferred choice. I will change that now. Thanks! I didn’t know that, but I’m not very cultured anyway. I obviously just wrote it with the most common readings.

While different dictionaries usually also list chadou for 茶道, it is much more common to pronounce it sadou, at least in the Tokyo area. Ever Japanese that I know from here pronounces it sadou.
