It's like anything else. You get out of it what you put into it, simple as that. Personalty, I find script easier than the native functions in a lot of ways, because the native functions are rote memorization. Scripts are based on C, meaning they have rules and syntax developed over decades by people much smarter than any of us. This in turn make scripts somewhat self documenting.

What often goes forgotten is that code is not for computers. Code is for HUMANS. It's the only way to tell a machine what you want with any sort of coherence and human readable consistency.
