I could imagine the civilized world to forcibly capture an old Sentinelese and a younger one and then teach them the ways of civilization. Drop them back on the island and let them tell everyone else about how cool stuff in the civilized world is and voila, have the duo start a Meiji revolution on the island.

The British tried that and probably caused an epidemic.

They literally did exactly what you said OTL except they failed.
