I agree with your last two statements, but the idea the RxJava and Dagger make things _easier_ to understand for developers (I'm inferring this relates more to newcomers to Android as they are the once which have a hard time grokking this stuff) is a joke. RxJava and Dagger only increase ramp up time and the amount of stuff to learn, regardless of how useful they are. If someone came to me confused and I pointed them in that direction, Im sure they would get lost in the woods somewhere and Id never see them again.
