They're a PITA to use, but not because they're hard to understand.
- AnimalMuppet 11y agoBut for writing actual programs, the complexity of using matters as much as the complexity of understanding. (I recognize that this doesn't invalidate the point you are trying to make in the parent post. They aren't incompatible with human understanding. They're incompatible with writing programs in a reasonable amount of time, though.)
