Chalk it up, then. I've never had a problem explaining the nuances of hooks, and there isn't actually that many permutations needed to wrangle them in indeed - but our engineers are usually quite quick to pick these things up and understand the interface without having to worry about the implementation anyway.

It is a challenge for many developers. It’s taking developers I work with between 2-5 months to really grok it.

So if you’re working on multiple tiny changing projects, or with contractors who are only gonna be around for 6-12 months, it’s possibly not worth it.

But if you’re working on a project that needs to stick around, and the people you’re working with are colleagues who will remain in the company even if not on the same project, the training is totally worth it, IMO.
