I think I heard people say that gold isn't pooled so actually going to vendors and buying stuff is a pain

This feels like a bigger pain than it actually is in practice. Weapons don't permanently break in FE4 so you don't end up buying things from shops much at all. A lot of the missing QOL stuff is like this -- it feels inconvenient but only if you're playing FE4 like FE7, when you should be playing FE4 like FE4.

That said the first 2 or 3 chapters do have a ridiculous amount of slowly marching units through shitty terrain that only exists to waste your time. That part is pretty indefensible. And of course everything from that era is missing some modern QOL improvements.
