I'd say there is no question in the acad arena.
The guys that know the answers to the hard questions are ObjectArx programmers, and they almost always go C#.
Also, many questions are answered by looking at objectarx examples, as well as the SDK.
I like each for different reasons, but the .net API for acad is essentially toned down (managed) ObjectArx.
I don't see how you can avoid it, and C# syntax is not hard compared to the other challenges of .net.
Its dealing with the object oriented environment that takes getting used to...inheritance, casting, conversions,
delegates...and the Adesk .net api.
