If it's too complicated to learn the available programming features, 
don't learn them.

You are then at the same point as if the features were not available and 
gnuplot becomes easier to learn again. ;)

If you can't  cope with those features, don't  use them when "developing 
for" gnuplot.

If reversing a car is "complicated" and beyond your capabilities, your 
just drive around the block and stop a further up the road. You don't 
start campaigning for the removal of reverse gear from all cars.

This is a non argument.
