    I started learning Python with YT tutorials and codewars, and this kind of problem would have stomped and disheartened me at the beginning.
    To me 8 kyu is literally just citing a concept or function (e.g., this one: https://www.codewars.com/kata/555a67db74814aa4ee0001b5/python),
    while 7 kyu is applying a concept or function, and 6 kyu combining more than one concept or function, and so on.

    Especially 8 kyu shouldn't be too hard because if the entry level is steep a lot of the true beginners will turn away.
    Well, my opinion, at least :D

    No one coerces you to do anything. If you don't like something, just skip it. There are thousands of katas without strings.
