As someone with no scripting or coding experience, I found embryo to be quite easy to get a handle on. I havent tried learning all those other ones, but when it comes to all the different code stuff in Edje, you really have to keep it as simple as possible. After all, edje is a canvas for art really, and doesnt need to be anymore complex. Ive never found any limitations in embryo (we all remember that spacegame thing) and I imagine if anyone wanted to do more they would just work that into the evas/c code rather than the edje theme.
