They can't figure out anything -- how to put on the belts, how to open the door, how not to burn their legs on the pipes, how not to break your visor or wind wing getting out, nothing. After a couple to three times, they can do it on their own. I don't think either system is inherently easier to use -- it's like different flavors of keyboards. The one you're used to using is the one that's easier to use.
