I have had the opposite experience: I can code a robot in Java significantly faster and better than in LabVIEW. Despite having more experience with LabVIEW.
As for which is easier to pick up if you are already into the build season: I think it depends on your robot. If you are going to need to make some complex code with PID and sensor feedback and a lengthy autonomous, Java is the way to go. 1-2 hours watching Brad Miller's youtube playlist on using robotbuilder, and your ready to dive in. But for more simple code, LabVIEW is probably easier to learn the basics due to its more self-explanatory structure.

1- Not sure, didn't want to waste more time trying to root the problem. Thought the library was self-explanatory so it might be the former.
2- I probably would be able to do the same in C++ if we could get it to actually work
3- I learned about Mr. Miller's playlist just last week, would've really helped but whatever
