Which is the same reason most people won't travel by train.

Indeed. Ryanair, as with trains, can be fine.

I see people getting on and off Ryanair flights almost every week. They
don't seem especially distressed. Only flown them once myself (apart
from 20 years ago) and it was fine. If anything the Berlin Metro train
to get to the airport, plus the long walk to the actual airport from the
station [1], was the worst aspect of the trip.

Oddest thing for a frequent flyer is the way they use the airplane's own
stairs, not even the airport's stairs, to get onto the plane. That's
what you expect on the little Fokkers (tm), but not on a huge 737!

[1] Presumably that's Ryanair's fault too!!
Is that a normal feature on most 737s, to have their own retractable stairs?
