In simpler words, as a user: The jq query language [1] is obtuse, obscure, incredibly hard to learn if you need it for quick one liners once in a blue moon. I've tried, believe me, but I should probably spend that much effort learning Chinese instead.

It's just operating at the wrong abstraction level, whereas gron is orders of magnitude easier to understand and _explore_.
