I mean a hassle as in the time input that is necessary to conduct good diplomacy. You may end up spending more time making deals and trying to draft 'water-tight' treaties than you do making your turns. It also adds more stress and pressure (ie player burnout) if you aren't used to it, particularly if English isn't your first language or you happen to be in a line of work where you draft contracts
Certainly it was something I wasn't expecting when I started and I think its only fair to warn others about it.

Diplomacy a hassle? Perhaps for some, but for me its a way playing the game and it works for me.
