Can you expand on what you perceive as difficult? Sure, some people don't want to maintain anything themselves (that's fine, that's why bike shops exist), but assuming one wants to do it, bike disk brakes are easy.
Swapping pads is super easy and if the use case is "poke along around 10mph" they will last thousands of miles. If they are hydraulic you'll need to bleed them once every few years but again that's pretty easy.
