How complicated it has become to drink coffee ;-)

The results are worth it. The only better brewer I've found (and I've got over a dozen) is a vacuum/siphon brewer ... but that takes an intensive half-hour of work to get one, albeit excellent, cup.

Significantly less so. The Vacuum pot predates the french press, percolator and auto drip. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_coffee_maker

They're also a huge pain in the ass to use.

And dangerous, if you have a glass one. I do, from the '60s; it's cracked and I've never tried it.

Cowboy coffee is pretty simple.
