This topic is often a good example of how people are more emotional than reasonable.
Someone will complain about all the things they don't like about DND, but when presented with alternatives balk and stick to DND. The devil you know, the comfort of the familiar, whatever.
Which is fine, I guess. We all do that kind of thing. I'm just as emotional as anyone else.
Learning a new RPG system is a big time sink. Maybe if you keep searching you can find one perfect for you, but it's easier to stick with the most famous one that everyone else already knows, and then add in tons of homebrew to fix the flaws.
You'd be surprised how fast and easy to learn TTRPGs can be. Compared to what's available, DnD 5e is actually on the crunchier side (upper mid range overall)
