The subtext is that statistics is somehow "easier" than calculus since it's more connected to the "real world" --
But, nothing about real world problems is easy. Real world problems are harder, require more experience, more analysis, are less susceptible to canned techniques and strategies.
And more importantly it's hard to really understand much about statistics without knowing some calculus. Not a popular opinion. I know. 2/
