I don't agree that "immediately learnable" equates to hard to use.
I wouldn't expect to see emergency call on the keyboard of my phone,
and
would never think to look there. To me, it might as well not be
there at
all, for all that I would be able to find and use it when I needed it.
Again, this has little to do with "hard to use" in my opinion. Once
you do see it or know it's there, one can make a pretty good case it's
quite easy to use.
