I would argue it actually is the other way around. Or maybe the learning curves a different for each. Monero has more layers to it and it's solutions are a bit more advanced than Bitcoin's. Like the coin cap for example. For Bitcoin we have about 21 million in the year 2140. Pretty straightforward. Monero had a emission curve with a tail emission following after that. So it seems more complex, but the outcome is quite similar, but it's more clever. Bitcoin has a long term security budget problem, while Monero has that part secured, but the tradeoff is a asymptotically reducing inflation rate that's approaching 0%, but never reaches actual 0% inflation rate as Bitcoin does in the year 2140. Currently the inflation rates are basically the same for both, but in the year 2140 BTC's will be 0%, while XMR's will be at ~0.43% per year. So there is so to say more to learn about Monero (if you want to). But then again you don't need any knowledge really. You can set up your grandma with Cake Wallet, tell her to never ever show/tell anyone her seed phrase and you can be sure she won't get into problems because of tainted coins or some guy mugging her, because he could trace back a transaction of her to find out how rich she is. If you want to do the same with Bitcoin, you either have to lure her into custodial services (and betray the original vision of it) or need to educate her about tainted coins, setting up a home server so she can run her LN node etc etc. So I challenge you: show me a user-friendly setup with Bitcoin, that keeps your information about how much you own private, that offers low TX fees, and also is fully open source and non-custodial. All of that can be done with a simple install of Cake Wallet for Monero (and you get an easy off ramp though gift cards integrated into the app as well, were you only need to give them an email address).

Download cake wallet, then the UX is identical to Bitcoin. You write down your seed then you recieve to your address and send to others addresses. You don't even need to worry about UTXO management you just send and recieve.
