Is there any use in learning an "easy" programming language?

i mean, you'll be able to write things in that language, which i'd say is somewhat useful 🤔
It's kinda like asking "is it worth doing long hikes before training to do 5km runs?", you probably don't need to go on hikes in order to start running, but it's less intimidating and if you then realize you're just not into running then you're still left with a useful skill.
