I used Apple Music a lot today - I didn't really find anything majorly off-putting about the UI. There were a few quirks which I'll let Apple off the hook for, seeing as they haven't dramatically changed their Music app in 9 years (unless you're counting the flattening that came with iOS 7.)

To say Apple Music is a "usability nightmare" is a HUGE stretch IMO. If I opened the app and was presented with 1000 different options along with every single interface guideline being ignored, sure, maybe that would be a "nightmare".

I think what you mean to say is "Apple Music isn't close enough to perfect yet, from a usability standpoint."

Agreed. A nightmare would be if it were difficult for the typical person to figure out how to get it to work. For that, things like gdb or git would be fine examples.

"Apple Music's playlists have some bugs and usability issues" new title sadly less sensational.
