both hands is a lot harder than striking a key.

There is a displacement between the g and b string. Do you play guitar? I definitely am more proficient at guitar, but when I went to keyboard, the fact that chords, scales and arpeggios do not have that displacement made me absorb keyboard concepts a lot easier.

There was a guitar player, Stuart Wittrock, that tuned his guitar in perfect fourths for that reason, tuning his top strings C and F instead of B and E. Makes it a lot easier, still, the art of fretting and plucking and synchronizing

What does training have to do with what instrument is harder to learn?

Emerson studied classical...fine...now put him up against Segovia, and he's smoked.

but that point is moot. I am talking about logical layout. Where a chord on a guitar can be two shapes, piano is one. Take an A chord 1st inversion across all strings, there will be a change in pattern. There will not be one on the keyboard. When you learn an octave scale on the keyboard, the same pattern repeats octave to octave. On a guitar

well i certainly exagerrated right there. but there's alot of what i said that you didn't respond to. when you only counter one small snippet of what i say, it makes me think everything else i said was right

jerry lee lewis was an excellent pianist and i love his songs/solos but his music is very simple. although i still agree with you. i definitely overdid in the statement about classical training. but just out of curiosity... did paul gilbert get any classical training? emerson did. w/e.
