I find that hard to believe. Almost everyone I’ve introduced to
#Haskell has been through stack. I’m not aware of any friendlier alternative
The absence of stack is an improvement, especially for beginners. The poor beginner who I am helping right now agrees. And hundreds before.

Can you be a bit more specific? I'm legitimately curious about what the pain points are.

specifically I need GHC with some libraries. Stack doesn't achieve this for me and many others. It's not complicated nor interesting

How much time do you spend teaching your students how to use cabal? How specific are their instructions from you on using cabal? Now same questions with stack. I'm guessing a discrepancy here might explain why you observe your students having a harder time with stack.

stack lets you easily install Haskell software on common operating systems. It's the most reliable easy way to do it. That's quite a useful trait! There are more reliable ways, but they're harder so deter most beginners.
