well, i use mkiv exclusively so that might be a sign that it's not that bad;

Good to know :)

I would much prefer mkiv as well, as luatex seems much easier to grok
than TeX. I have the luck to be entering typographical programming at
a new stage. To what degree can luatex be relied on to accomplish all
that TeX macros can? Does certain functionality still require TeX
code?

the same and more, it's still tex but we can now extend using lua so we can go beyond what normal tex can do
