Short answer: yes, it's worth the effort if you approach it correctly.
**Why:** the basics cover 80% of real-world cases. Specifically with super: start simple and add complexity only when justified.
**Watch out for:** comparing progress to elite athletes too early. This catches a lot of people who assume super is simpler than it actually is.
**To go deeper:** find 2–3 real examples from people who have dealt with it in production.
Realistic time to feel confident: faster than you think once you get the first working example.

Honest take, because I wish someone had told me this earlier.
Everything you will read about super will make it sound more complicated than it is. Here is what 6 years of working with rugby has actually taught me.
The most common trap is spending too long on research instead of doing.
What actually moved the needle for me: I stopped trying to understand everything before starting, and just committed to one focused hour a day for a month. After that, made the varsity team after 8 months.
The one thing I would prioritise: find a concrete real-world use case for super in your own life or work.
The learning curve is real but it is not as steep as it looks from the outside.
