I’ll bite.
I spent 9 hours (4 of them were drunk, 1 of them quite wasted) on Clock Tower before I finally got it. I’m a pretty bad jumper, generally, but I’m a stubborn kitten, so I have completed most of the in game JPs out of sheer bullheadedness. I guess you would consider me one of the “bad” people in your case.
This puzzle is moderate to easy, to me. It took me around an hour and a half (remember, really, really bad jumper). The timing was more difficult than the jumping itself, I died several times within the first 10 tries on the last few blue boxes because I ran out of health. Would I say it’s too easy? No. I’d say 40% won’t complete it because they’ll either give up or be somewhat worse than I was, and 50% will complete it within their first hour. 10% will complete it first few tries, and that’s fine. 1% of that 10% will go on forum and complain about how easy it was.
Clock Tower was a mess. It was FAR from a minority of people who thought it was too hard. I have nightmares about the 2nd gear, you remember the one. Unless you’re stubborn as me, drunk, or a mix of the two, most people who are not JP experts did not do it at all. I’d say less than 10% of the members in my guilds completed it. And many who completed it had advantage of speed traits or atunement bonuses. This puzzle thankfully nullifies that.
In any case, I found this puzzle enjoyable and beautiful, though on the easier side. Time wise it took a nub like me about the same time as one of the harder World JPs. Would have been nice if we could costume brawl instead of just throwing snowballs but I understand that might have caused unfair skill usage.
