I find that things I think would be easy and often incredibly difficult for people who are not as experienced as I am. That certainly played out while I was writing exams for undergraduates.

Once we become experts (relatively) at something it becomes very difficult to judge "easy" and "hard" things. I suspect we have rose tinted glasses about our prior selves and their ability. Plus, the people we are testing are not our prior selves and have a totally different set of experiences they draw from.

You're comment feel very much so "back in my day" which I am almost certain is a logical fallacy.
