Hi Bryan, Yeah, its not a matter of one format being easier than the other. I think you and I both know there are some mainstream side-scrollers out that really would blow some of the VI gamers minds. Super Castlevania comes to mind here. After level 7 that game is quite simply insanely difficult. However, if a blind gamer has never had that experience then its no wonder they are saying side-scrollers are too easy because they don't have anything in their personal experience to compare Super Liam, Q9, and Tarzan Junior to.
So I know where you are coming from. I don't really like the blanket statements either, but I also know their options and experience has been rather limited to date. Even Philip came out and said Q9 was intended to be a children's game so didn't put too much complexity into it. However, if someone plays that and says its the be all and end all of side-scrollers that is far from true. Any of the classic mainstream side-scrollers such as Mario, Megaman, Double Dragon, Ninja Turtles, Castlevania, etc are 10 times the game Q9 is in terms of complexity and general difficulty. Cheers!
