Steep learning curve just means learning quickly, usually I’ve heard it used for being /forced/ to learn quickly, as a type of hardship.
I disagree with the article that “steep learning curve” implies something learned easily, and neither does it imply something difficult to learn. It refers solely to rate of learning. Other interpretations are innumerate.
