It's unlikely that Video on IRC will ever be simpler than services like AIM, Skype, MSN or Yahoo. "Noobs" who have trouble using services like Skype are unlikely to grasp concepts of IRC, let alone dealing with video.
I'm not sure what the rest of your post is trying to say-- if you're trying to say that mIRC has no issues, you should pay more attention to the bug reports forum; there are tons of outlying issues in far greater need of Khaled's attention than duplicating functionality that you can get from clients far more suited to the purpose.
