The definition may be simple, but it's not very concrete and I'd argue that makes it not strait forward. While examples of vector spaces can be very concrete (think R, R^2, R^30), I struggle to think of a concrete example of a multilinear function from vectors and dual vectors in V to numbers in K. On top of that when working with tensors, you don't usually use the definition os a multilinear function at least as far as I remember.
