        Right, it’s remembering them and using them efficiently that’s hard. It’s amusing watching coworkers try to flex in vim and then struggle at the most basic tasks.

      No, some piano plays are still harder than others, mo matter how long you practice. Editing text with vim is easier than with nano after some practice.

        If something is “easy to use” this includes the time you need learn said thing.

        Drinking rahmen from the bowl is easier then using chopsticks (even if you are more elegant with chopsticks)

        Driving automatic is easier then driving manual (even if you may be more efficient with manual if you practised shifting a lot)

        Walking is easier then flicflacs (even if you may be faster with flicflacs if you practised a lot)

        Using Ubuntu is easier than using arch (even if arch gives you more control and opportunities if you understand it)

          “Easy to use” means that you do less and get more. Learning doesn’t count if you learn something once and then use the skills you obtained many times.
