I have no doubts its 100% operator error though and nothing to do with the line or the reel! lol

Yes true the braid is tough to break. I either put a towel in my hand and grab the line so I don't break the rod or get enough slack line and wrap the braid around the stout part of the rod behind the reel and pull slowly to break loose.
