With the steering itself, the mechanism is still intuitive and simple for both direct and indirect
In one case the handlebars are attached direct to the headset and then linked with a rod that means the two wheels turn at the same time. You shift both handlebars laterally,
In the other, the handlebars are linked to a headset and then rods connects to the wheels. In this case the rods move the wheels as opposed to linking them. YOu move them back and forward.
Realistically there is simply a different "feel" but both are easy to use
Direct can be more "twitchy" as there is not the damping that is provided by the rods driving the wheel motion. However the other side is that the damping effectively "delays" the wheel movement so it is less responsive
I regularly change between the direct on teh Catrike and the indirect on the Gekko with no problem
