What exactly is so difficult about soldering a couple of water heater
fittings?
No problems here.

It is not so much the soldering, it is getting all the water out of the
lines.


Every water heater I've replaced, the water came out of the pipes as part of the normal process. I don't know how you'd change one and keep the water
in the pipes.
