Being a professional musician takes tens of thousands of hours of work. If you don't put in the work, it is obvious to the listener. You have to learn all the theory and technique regardless of instrument or key layout. You can reduce the load when you're a beginner by using a ABCDEF keyboard instead of a QWERTY keyboard, but there is no way around learning the basics.

That's a lot of work, and the only reason anyone does it is because keyboards are made that way. Becoming an expert takes thousands of hours of work, yes, but why does that mean it should take thousands of hours to become a novice? Just because I have spent thousands of hours learning music does not mean I should demand it be difficult for beginners.
