I tried to wrap my mind around TeX, but ended up learning PostScript
instead :-)
I tried to grok TeX (my then-PHB tried to force me to learn it), but ended
up learning PostScript... It just worked.

Indeed; he helped me with a SCSI ID problem back in ye olde BSD/OS days
(BSDi), before WinDriver took over and trashed the joint for our
customers. Did I mention that WinDriver pretty lost all of their
customers to OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, etc?
Sounds like my own clients once; we got borged by a Big Company in order
to flog their own (inferior) product, and to my black heart's delight each
and everyone one of them went to an opposing product.
