I don’t think you can accurately extrapolate from one week of piano experience. If you keep at it, I suspect how it feels to play in 6 months or 6 years from now will be very different from how it feels to play now. I’ve been playing piano casually for about 18 months now. I can sight read easy music (though I can’t play smoothly) and I can play a bit of jazz. Physically playing the instrument - hitting the notes I intend to hit - is pretty easy. But reading sheet music (and especially reading the rhythm) is absolutely my bottleneck right now when it comes to performance. I’m sympathetic to the problem - improving sheet music notation seems hard. But learning it really is a hassle.
