This is a pretty bullshit argument. People can have a really easy or hard time learning a language, depending on said language. It can be too far from what you know, or too similar but just different enough.

Also it's a log of personal experience and not titled "an objective criticism of Zig". I've been interested in Zig a little for a while and this was awesome to read. It hasn't made my interest any smaller or bigger, it's simply a description of one beginner's journey, and if the Zig people are smart they will analyze it and then decide which points are valid and which ones can be ignored. Neither ignoring everything nor accepting everything would probably be useful.
