Pathfinder 2e is definitely more complicated than DND 5e, but in return you get a much more interesting, expressive game, in my opinion. When people say it's cleanly designed they are normally comparing it to pathfinder 1e, which is a labyrinth of bizarre rules, pointless edge cases and overly crunchy rolls.

I'm playing my first PathFinder 2e game right now, and while I do prefer it over 5e, I definitely think there's a lot of opportunity to streamline.

Also I can't remember what exactly it was, but there was something I needed to do when leveling up my wizard that was hidden in the text of some paragraph in the class description, which was less than ideal, lol.

Pretty much my only use of AI is asking it what page to look at for the rule I need.

It's probably better to just search the Archives of Nethys. That should have links to most of the buried rules sitting beneath whatever you're looking for.
