Electric guitars are much easier to learn on (because you don't have to press the strings as hard), but if you can play an acoustic, you can easily play an electric. I started on acoustic, some 27 years ago. It was rough, and I almost gave up guitar. A friend bought an electric not long after, and let me borrow it, and that's why I'm still playing today. I love acoustic guitars now, but hated playing them as a kid.

Semi agree/not agreeing with you. Acoustic and Electric guitar are 2 different animals. Apples and oranges.

Yes, they both are guitar and played the same way. However, the branch learning and playing each instruments are different.

I started only with acoustic. Later bought a cheap electric and hated that. After 20 years later. I liked both. Acoustic has it's challenges. But it can play different type of music. Almost like freshwater fishing versus saltwater fishing. They seems the same , but different.

For $200, yes, you can use it as a beginner guitar for a teen to try out. Then if they want to play different type of music, look further then. But I would not want to rule out playing acoustic just because they are harder to play.
