It’s honestly not that hard, the language was made to be simple. The complexity associated with the language largely has to do with the legacy applications the language supports. If you look at a greenfield project (eg CHADstack (it’s a joke project, but pretty fun to get exposure to some esoteric stuff for a couple hours)) you’ll actually pick the language features up pretty quickly.

Honestly I’d love to learn COBOL just for fun but I have to work for a living 🥱
