I don't agree! I'll bet you're familiar with derailleur bikes and unfamiliar with IGH bikes, so you're not comparing them fairly. If you were equally unfamiliar with both types of systems, you'd find the IGH much simpler.
Seized spokes are merely from age and neglect. It has nothing to do with the type of bike.
