I play a weekly pathfinder game, and I dearly wished it was in 5e (even though it might cripple my character). The amount of minutia, fiddling and tracking required is ridiculous. We have one new ish player who's bad at math, and one who's mental acuity has declined a bit with age (great guy though), and they are both struggling with pathfinder. 5e is far less "in the way" of adventuring.
I also see people talk about the far greater choices that 3.x/pathfinder offer... but many of these choices are traps. The difference between an optimal character and a shoddily designed one are immense. In 5e, almost every choice is valid - some are a little better than others, but even a casually made character will be pretty decent. In fact, you have to really work at it to make a bad character.
