Seriously, who thinks cooking is hard? Some meals are like five ingredients, six if you want to be fancy with it. As long as you have a knife, a pot and a pan you can make so many good dishes.
The only single-use appliance I will advocate for is a rice cooker, because they're cheap and they free your pot up for other things while still making perfect rice.
Having met a few people who could manage to catch boiling water on fire, there are definitely people out there for who cooking is challenging. Though I don't disagree that cooking has an incredibly low barrier to entry so there's no excuse in trying 🤣
