Users who are trying Emacs for the first time have a direct access to "Undo": it's in the tool bar, labeled "Undo".  If you put the mouse there, it says "Undo last edits (C-x u)".

That still requires extra research on the part of the user. As well as subsequent adaptation.

Moreover the bindings for "undo" are not more exotic than those of copy (M-w), cut (C-w) and paste (C-y).

True, even though it is a bit more exotic (the advertised binding is a whole key sequence rather than a plain modifier+key). But at least we have arrow keys for navigation.
