As I see it, this is a completely legit beginner level perspective. When I first touched a programming language (C, Borland compiler) I was able to run a first program within minutes. I completely understand the frustration with development environments that frustrate an aspiring user unnecessarily - I had this experience with F#, VSCode an Ionide, which is a very ugly case. Haskell was not that bad, but it it certainly is not for the faint of heart.
