Interesting, because I wouldn't thought about D&D/Pathfinder as game easing the GM job but indeed, well written module/campaign are really helpful, especially for a busy GM. Also a well balanced system is also a great tool
As someone who has run both, the organization of content and rules in the books makes a huge difference. D&D will reference rules that show up in other parts of the book with even telling you that it's doing so, or what page to jump to for the rest of the information. Meanwhile PF2e is free open source and has all of its game content in a fairly easy to browse free database online.
