I suspect this is highly subjective. I learned git when I barely understood programming. Figured out the basics and went from there. It’s never gotten in my way. I don’t deny it’s been confusing at times, but I’ve used svn and hg and had a similar experience. People seem to have highly variable experiences of it - maybe due to how they think, or perhaps an element of chance and first impressions?
