Eh, like the other commenter said, you get used to it.

Everything in life is a compromise in one way or another. Using journalctl instead of less? That took me about 5 minutes to commit to memory, and then...that's it.

I don't even think twice anymore about using one command or another to read the contents of the log.

But you still need less, so now you've added one more command to remember for minimal benefit; less and grep are standard tools for working with everything, journalctl is a one-off.
