People are okay with how long it takes to master computer programming (or science). If they weren’t we wouldn’t have 4 year degrees for it.
However unlike music, there are new tools being made constantly because the practice of programming feeds the same skills one needs to make tooling.
If musicians had 10,000 instruments to choose from, each with some subtle gotcha that will only make itself known once you get in deep… then maybe they’d want instruments to be easy to play too.
A good comparison is songwriting. Lots of artists like songs that are easy to play. Piano pieces that are complicated get put down for later, unless they are classical master pieces. Guitar songs that require too fast a rhythm don’t get as much play time in anyone’s jam session either.
