Coding itself is really quite easy, for an individual that can properly apply logic. However, it's like learning a language (Because you quite literally are.) in that much of learning to code is remembering what words do what.

The main reason it's considered so hard is that, as I've learned over the years, a large majority of the general population struggles when it comes to formal logic. It's the same reason math is considered challenging.

And then I try explaining to people that writing software and using AI and that combination of using AI to write software are all communications problems. There is an entire formal school called effective communications that zeros in on the communications aspects of, well, doing anything which include by yourself as well as collaboration teams as well as AI in any of these and that is a communications situation, and by focusing on the quality of those communications a majority of the stress and confusion evaporates. Then they argue because they argue at anything, and that ends any forward progress.
