I don't find it hard.  Certainly no harder than Asian languages.

When I started learning arabic I thought the script was difficult; everything 
looked like the same squigglely line.  But it's not too bad now that I've 
played with it a little.  I'm sure others first encountering our style of 
writing think some of our characters are difficult-to-distinguish.

That has nothing to do with pIqaD.  You can create that same problem in an 
english font.  Years ago when I remapped the KLI font, I also changed the 
spacing of some of the characters.  And of course when you hand write pIqaD you 
can put however much space you want.
