Is PLO more difficult to understand than Holdem NL?

I've been playing PLO exclusively for the past 2-3 years but had been a NL Holdem player before. Even though I had never been that good in PLO compared to NL softer games made it more profitable to play it.

Recently I started to play some NL again and I feel like I have a much stronger understanding of ranges and of what to do in much more spots compared to PLO. It seems PLO has so many weird spots where I am thinking folding or shoving/calling has the same EV. Or to say it more simple: "I don't know what to do, both options seem kind of right". I think that is mainly because in NL you have so many spots where you are way behind or way ahead, which makes the decision between calling/raising or folding much more simple.

Does anyone else have the same issue?
