Exactly.
And C to G is easy with the connector bridge, not like someone upthread mentioned.

LOL. It can easily take 15 minutes just to get from one gate in ATL to the tram and back from the tram in another concourse to the gate. Then you have the waiting time for the tram and the tram time. One has to allow 1/2 hour or more from gate to gate in ATL.

Nope, the maximum jog is 40 gates (1/2 of one concourse each way), plus a long elevator ride down, a wait for the tram, and a long elevator ride up.
If frequent flyers have an issue navigating an airport (almost any airport) that reflects much more on them than on the airport itself, unfortunately.
In any case, let us know what you decide to do.
