I'll disagree on that. GIMP has no dedicated tool to draw basic geometric shapes because it's an image editor, not a painting tool. For its devs to add such a tool will not be hard because GIMP can already do it in a more advanced way by stroking selection. If anyone wants to try: make a new image > rectangle/ellipse selection (shortcuts R/E) > press / (in keyboard) > write some of and enter on "Stroke selection..." > enter. If there's a problem with GIMP, it's being pretty complicated (then again it's an advanced program), perhaps more than its competitors.
