I don't know what other games you've been playing, but while 5e is simple compared to other D&D editions and other big long-running systems, it's significantly more complex and harder to pick up and start playing than the vast majority of indie TTRPGs, many of which have rulebooks with under 30 pages.
Hard agree. I've played exclusively with one group, and we've only ever played with Into the Odd-style combat. It's been plenty expressive for us.
