I'll give it another shot (I have to for my current project) -- but I don't think my initial assessment is "total BS".
I understood what D3 was doing under the hood, and experienced a lot of friction/confusion when I needed to build and manipulate a specific SVG tree structure.
The fact that D3 expects me to understand the low-level SVG structure and yet provides me with a model that doesn't intuitively mesh with this model is the source for most of my confusion and frustration, I expect.
