I find indoor climbing really unintuitive. I personally hate resin holds, both for my skin and just in general quality as opposed to rock.
I feel as if indoor routes too are often more focussed on power and strength (at least in the walls I have been to), which makes sense given the trends in sport climbing and bouldering, however for a slabby trad climber like myself it always feels much harder.
That being said I am not of the same vintage as yourself so understand that this may be coming from a differing perspective.
