For 20 years I keep hearing these types of complains about Git, Perl, GPG, etc. If you really need those tools than things like syntax, arguments and flags need a little time investment, but after a while they become second nature and you don't even think about them, but about the hard problem that is being made possible to solve by said tools.

These are not toys, one should not expect to just jump into them and start doing work like you would not just jump into a Boeing 747 and just take off, fly and land. It having 100s of buttons is not a weakness.
