   I don't think I have seen "steep learning curve" used in that sense
prior to reading your post. I have seen it being used as "what a steep
cliff to climb!" (i.e. would would have been much easier with a
"flatter" one). OTOH, I just went to an (Am.) English school my first
school year, and language is not one of my fields of interest. So I'll
just shut up and go away.
