At least users can change it by setting configure file.

I would wish to get 1 from SELECT SIN(90);

Thanks

How to repeat:
SELECT SIN(90);
SELECT SIN(RADIANS(90));

Suggested fix:
Configurable

A common thing done in other languages is to append "D" to the function name:  SIND(90), ATAND(1,1), etc.  I think this is better than a configuration setting.
