I disagree about them being challenging, but they kept you on your toes more and asked you to observe the area for telegraphs or cast names, you know, like some of the Endwalker dungeons have throughout the expansion. But being kept on your toes and having to pay attention doesn't necessarily mean they are hard. It just means you don't see a red telegraph all the time which makes it braindead.

No, I think you just didn't understand the mechanic. The red telegraphs appear for a split second. You are meant to identify the mechanic either by the cast name or the colored symbols appearing somewhere or other things in the environment.
