I mean I guess on a surface level this might be true if you only consider like developing small web features, but large and complex code bases and distributed architectures are not easy to work with imho. You can see that its actually pretty difficult because brand new junior devs can take upwards of 6 months to be useful, not to mention to occasional stand-in dev that sub contracts their job out, then when taken into a room and asked to read "their" code cant even understand what is going on.
I graduated with a physics degree and I still remember how steep the programming learning curve felt when I took my first programming in C course despite having done some python work in the past.
So I don't think the "most" qualifier is necessarily correct either.

C is waay less safe then python and that's despite type checking. Most jobs don't require C or C++. I would say because of this most programming jobs are easier now. >You can see that its actually pretty difficult because brand new junior devs can take upwards of 6 months to be useful, This means it's easy. 6 months is incredibly short. Mastery of anything usually requires a couple years.
