If Aikido is so hard to learn why do people half way do it. People should train to be as efficent as possible as quickly as possible. I would think part time martial artist would be less common in Aikido. 4 hours a week isn't going to cut it.
The quality of teaching is what matters most. Not the quantity. If you have both in abundance then you've won a watch. Sadley however we don't all find ourselves in that situation. So we do what we can. Personaly I don't see what the rush is. We have our whole lives ahead of us to study Aikido.
Not to mention the fact that many of us already HAVE lives. Aikido, indeed any martial art I have taken, takes a back seat to work, family and friends.
one of my local aikido schools has 4-5 lessons around the city (different locations)... unless you travel you will not get the tuition. some people have a busy life where it is not as easy to dedicate 5-6 hours a week to a martial art. 3 hours a week is better than none in many cases, it all depends on the student practicing at home
