I don't know if "finicky" is the right term but based on the number of threads here reporting problems with hydraulic brakes set-up, installation and maintenance difficulties, it's clear they aren't all that straightforward. It's like electronic shifting, they are great when they work right but frustrating when they don't and more expensive in any case.
