Honestly? The loading system isn't as bad as people make out. Once you know how to cut a leader and load it, it's no harder than any other camera - and a lot more reliable than the various "quick load" systems in SLRs.
I cut the leaders on every film I buy now. I have nine different bottom loaders and the cameras which aren't can still take the long leader, so it's no big deal. It takes five seconds per film, max.
