To be fair I have seen a company who had a dedicated git guy who was committing, merging, pushing whatever on behalf of the developer after nth time some of them screwed the repo completely. When I started learning how to use I had people telling me it is difficult, but were not able to explain why they think it is difficult and I started learning having this in mind and that made it unnecessarily complicated. I think once you know all the terminology and a few workflow scenarios, then it is very easy.

Some companies have a commit queue that takes care of actually merging a PR as part of their CI that mitigates this problem.

I have this view with calculus. Basic integration and differentiation is just simple arithmetic.
