Yeah, like it has been with .NET development on platforms where Visual Studio doesn't exist (read: all of them except Windows).
"should be" is a very different creature from "is", and is also very different from "will be".

Also known as "the every other platform except Windows" crowd, which apparently is substantial enough that even the one outlier -- Microsoft -- finally is trying to move in line with the rest of the world by allowing Bash and Linux tools in Windows 10.
You can be dismissive all you want, but that doesn't change the reality that CLI+editors are modern development (see also: almost every new language's ecosystem pivoting on CLI tooling and editor plugins), not the past.
