It's because you already have your other skills at a high level. You don't start out with zero defense and hitpoints. If you did, then it would be just as hard as starting out in any other combat skill (melee, ranged and magic).
In my opinion the whole skill is a flaw. It is simply another way to do combat, and it comes after everyone have had 20 years to level up their other skills to assist it. Of course it is going to be way too easy.
It is Jagex's way of trying to add classes to a game that is otherwise classless.
