Yes, some of them hide the complexity well, like Word and LibreOffice.
Even Emacs can be used as a fancy notepad and the extra features tackled
gradually. The others I've already learned.

I think you're a much smarter fellow than me. Over the years I've tried
several times to learn LaTeX by spending a day or two reading tutorials
and using it. But, I've never been able to write practical documents
that way. It's possible to copy templates, but understanding how they
work so small changes can be made is more difficult.
